Confounding Factors Influencing Amyloid Beta Concentration in Cerebrospinal Fluid
Background. Patients afflicted with Alzheimer's disease (AD) exhibit a decrease in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentration of the 42 amino acid form of β-amyloid (Aβ42). However, a high discrepancy between different centers in measured Aβ42 levels reduces the utility of this biomarker as a...
