Special Issue: Clinical Diagnosis of Alzheimers Disease

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most common aging-related neurodegenerative disorders, accounting for more than 60% of dementia cases among the elderly across the globe. While AD is classically diagnosed postmortem based on finding of hallmark brain lesions including amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, significant advances have been made in the past several decades for early/antemortem diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.
The current special issue of JBR Journal of Clinical Diagnosis & Research aims to promote/update the understanding of clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. This issue will publish original studies, reviews, case reports or other types of scientific work (e.g., meta-analysis) related but not entirely limited to the following topics: development and application of novel brain imaging technologies, cerebrospinal fluid/peripheral biomarkers and cognitive assessment battery for Alzheimer’s disease /dementia diagnosis; genetic and biochemical assessment of Alzheimer’s disease/dementia risk factors among populations; animal and human studies on neuropathology and disease biology of Alzheimer’s disease/dementia; and current status and challenges on understanding the etiological and pathogenic mechanism of Alzheimer’s disease.

The Journal follows a stringent double blind peer review process for all submitted manuscripts. We welcome manuscripts for the special issue till “March 25^th, 2018”. The submitted manuscripts would be published by “April 15^th, 2018. As the submission for the special issue would be limited in number & would be processed on a First come First Serve basis.
