Effect of Corpulence on pTau217 Measurements in Plasma

AAIC 2025 Abstract

Abstract

Background: Plasma pTau217 is a robust indicator of amyloid pathology recently included as a Core 1 biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, factors like body mass can influence its measurement. Investigation of how much this impacts classification of participants as Core 1 A+ is relevant for studies looking at early AD stages.
