Impact of LDL-C levels on severity and outcome of intracranial haemorrhage: a single-centre retrospective study by Kang-Po Lee, Li-Chi Hsu

“…Moreover, statin use is associated with better long-term outcome and may attenuate the effects of initial LDL-C in ICH patients.Conclusions In patients with ICH, particularly those with deep ICH, lower LDL-C levels are associated with more severe ICH and higher short-term and long-term mortality rates. Further randomised controlled trials are warranted to determine the optimal LDL-C levels in patients with ICH and dyslipidaemia.…”

Synaptic markers are associated with cognitive decline after accounting for amyloid burden among an at-risk Alzheimer’s disease cohort by Elizabeth M. Planalp, Rebecca E. Langhough, Erin M. Jonaitis, Carol A. Van Hulle, Rachael E. Wilson, Gwendlyn Kollmorgen, Clara Quijano-Rubio, Ozioma C. Okonkwo, Barbara B. Bendlin, Sanjay Asthana, Kaj Blennow, Henrik Zetterberg, Sterling C. Johnson

“…Most biomarkers of N were higher in the Aβ + group and lower in cognitively unimpaired individuals, though NPTX2 exhibited the opposite pattern. Even in the face of Aβ+, NPTX2 was higher in individuals who showed slower rates of cognitive decline, suggesting NPTX2 may be associated with cognitive resilience. …”
