Palmitoleic acid/palmitic acid ratio

1. Palmitoleic acid/palmitic acid ratio predicts mild cognitive impairment in humans (AUC 0.70).

   “The palmitoleic acid/palmitic acid ratio, alpha‐linolenic acid, and palmitoleic acid in CSF unesterified, supernatant fluid, and nanoparticles fraction respectively effectively differentiated MCI from CU”
