UCLA researchers have identified placental growth factor (PlGF) as a potential blood biomarker for early detection of cognitive impairment and dementia. High PlGF levels correlate with increased ...
But a new blood test might be able to detect early changes that wind up leading to cognitive impairment and dementia. The test looks at a protein that appears to play a role in the ability of drugs, ...
To identify and follow blood vessel-related changes in the brain that contribute to cognitive impairment and dementia, researchers and clinicians typically rely on MRI to evaluate 'downstream' ...
NT-proBNP was collected and evaluated in 43 (66.2%) patients, whereas in 48 (73.84%) out of 65 women, sFLT-1 and PlGF as well as their ratio were obtained. The median serum level of sFLT-1 was ...
