Avoidance of dyskinesia: preclinical evidence for continuous dopaminergic stimulation.

abstract：:Cerebral cholesterol metabolism has been linked with production of amyloid peptide (Abeta) crucial in AD. The association between use of cholesterol-lowering drugs (statins) and AD disease is currently being intensely discussed. In this case-control study on elderly nondemented subjects, the authors provide the first ...
