INTRODUCTION
This study aimed to investigate the differential roles of various plasma biomarkers in a stepwise diagnostic strategy for Alzheimer's disease (AD).
METHODS
A total of 2984 participants, including 666 cognitively unimpaired (CU), 2032 with Alzheimer's clinical syndrome (ACS), and 286 non-ACS individuals, were recruited. Plasma amyloid beta (Aβ) 42/40, four phosphorylated tau (p-tau) epitopes, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels were measured using immunoassays.
RESULTS
NfL demonstrated fair to excellent accuracy in differentiating non-ACS from CU groups (area under the curve [AUC], 0.79 to 0.94). p-tau217 had the highest accuracy for identifying Aβ (AUC 0.94) and tau positron emission tomography status (AUC 0.91). In the ACS group, p-tau217 was the strongest predictor of cognitive decline (p < .001).
DISCUSSION
NfL may serve as a useful screening tool, while p-tau217 is particularly valuable for confirming AD pathology and prognosis.
HIGHLIGHTS
Plasma NfL could screen for cognitive impairment. p-tau217 reliably detects AD pathology, regardless of diagnosis. p-tau217 and GFAP predict prognosis in ACS. Each plasma biomarker plays a distinct role in stepwise AD diagnostics.
引言
本研究旨在探讨各种血浆生物标志物在阿尔茨海默病（AD）逐步诊断策略中的不同作用。
方法
共招募了2984名参与者，包括666名认知未受损（CU）者、2032名患有阿尔茨海默病临床综合征（ACS）者和286名非ACS个体。使用免疫测定法测量血浆淀粉样蛋白β（Aβ）42/40、四种磷酸化tau（p-tau）表位、胶质纤维酸性蛋白（GFAP）和神经丝轻链（NfL）水平。
结果
NfL在区分非ACS组和CU组方面表现出中等至优异的准确性（曲线下面积[AUC]，0.79至0.94）。p-tau217在识别Aβ（AUC 0.94）和tau正电子发射断层扫描状态（AUC 0.91）方面具有最高的准确性。在ACS组中，p-tau217是认知衰退最强的预测因子（p <.001）。
讨论
NfL可作为一种有用的筛查工具，而p-tau217对于确认AD病理和预后特别有价值。
要点
血浆NfL可筛查认知障碍。无论诊断如何，p-tau217都能可靠地检测AD病理。p-tau217和GFAP可预测ACS的预后。每种血浆生物标志物在AD逐步诊断中都发挥着独特的作用。
