Description

Thirteen authors led by Pavan Chaggar model how amyloid load in each brain zone foretells tau growth and tissue loss there. Alzheimer disease spreads through the brain in a set order of stages. Their model treats tau as made and moved along brain links, fit to scan data over time. Cohorts came from two large studies and spanned the full span from no marks to both marks of the disease.

The base model replays the known stage order of tau spread with care. In a group with amyloid but no tau yet, tau spread ran fast while its making ran slow, a split from the full disease group. A grown model then ties zone amyloid to zone tau change and shrinkage in one frame. That tie may let doctors track each zone path for one patient.
