    Abstract Recently, low-sensitive plasma assays have been replaced by new ultra-sensitive assays such as single molecule enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Simoa), the Mesoscale Discovery (MSD) platform, and immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry (IP-MS) with higher accuracy in the determination of plasma biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Despite the significant variability, many studies have established in-house cut-off values for the most promising available biomarkers. We first reviewed the most used laboratory methods and assays to measure plasma AD biomarkers. Next, we review studies focused on the diagnostic performance of these biomarkers to identify AD cases, predict cognitive decline in pre-clinical AD cases, and differentiate AD cases from other dementia. We summarized data from studies published until January 2023. A combination of plasma Aβ

    Abstract Bailly et al. (2018) examined the trajectory of spirituality in a cohort of 567 non-institutionalized older adults living in Tours, France, during a period of five years. The measurements for spirituality (Daily Spiritual Experience Scale, DES), social support (Satisfaction with Social Support subscale of the Duke Social Support Index), and accommodative tendencies (Flexible Goal Adjustment) were longitudinally collected at three time points (2007, 2009, and 2012). The results of the study confirmed some expected observations, such as higher levels of spirituality among religious older adults when compared with the ones without religion, and older women reporting higher levels of spirituality than older men. But the most interesting finding was the observation that the measured levels of spirituality among older adults remained stable during this five-year period. Based on a growing number of studies and theories of aging suggesting that the levels of spirituality increases during a person's lifetime, one would expect an increase in the levels of spirituality along the study follow-up. The authors, however, interpreted the stable level of spirituality informed by the participants as having already reached a relatively high mean rating score of spirituality at baseline. From the beginning of the trail, many participants expressed self-contentment and reported having found meaning in their lives. Moreover, the responders had, in general, more years of education than expected for people in their age group, lived at home independently with a good self-health evaluation, had relatively fewer diseases, and a good perception of financial satisfaction; these characteristics perhaps make this group not representative of the French general population in the same age bracket.

    Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by the accumulation of abnormal tau proteins within neurons and amyloid plaques in the brain parenchyma, which leads to progressive loss of neurons in the brain. While the detailed mechanism of the pathogenesis of AD is still unknown, evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction likely plays a fundamental role in the pathogenesis of this disease. Due to the relevance of mitochondrial alterations in AD, recent works have suggested the therapeutic potential of mitochondrial-targeted lithium. Lithium has been shown to possess neuroprotective and neurotrophic properties that could also be related to the upregulation of mitochondrial function. In the current work, we perform a comprehensive investigation of the significance of mitochondrial dysfunction in AD and pharmacological treatment with lithium as imperative in this pathology, through a brief review of the major findings on the effects of lithium as a therapeutic approach targeting mitochondria in the context of AD.
