Description
Joshua David and co-authors test if amyloid build up in the brain tracks thinking decline over eight years. Their paper from 2026 uses the Dallas Lifespan Brain Study. More and more work hints that amyloid is not the sole early driver of decline in Alzheimer disease.
Data came from forty eight people, split into two groups of twenty four by amyloid status. The groups were matched by age and sex. Thinking was tracked across memory for events, working memory, speed, and reasoning. A link with amyloid group showed for reasoning but not for the other three fields as a whole. Broad decline over the eight years took place in both groups.
