BACKGROUND
As individuals with Down syndrome age, they face high risks of Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy. With symptomatic Alzheimer's disease, late-onset myoclonic epilepsy in Down syndrome (LOMEDS) often emerges. We aimed to examine how epilepsy develops in Down syndrome, its timing relative to Alzheimer's disease...

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration constitute a clinico‐genetic‐neuropathological continuum with marked heterogeneity and large, multimodal cohorts are needed to advance biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Understanding of the genetic architecture of AD in the context of its main genetic driver is improved, and APOE-stratified insights may help understand and overcome side effects, inform clinical trial enrollment strategies, and create the scientific basis for targeted, mechanism-driven therapies in neurodegenerative di...

Heterogeneous pre-dementia trajectories are revealed and support is shown for combining α-synuclein detection with Alzheimer biomarkers, cognitive staging and multidomain clinical measures to improve prognosis and trial design are supported.

It is concluded that rare coding CNVs in a proportion of AD-associated genes and 22q11.21 duplication as a strong AD-risk-decreasing factor increase AD risk and Conversely, 22q11.21 duplication as a strong AD-risk-decreasing factor is identified.
