Anemia and Blood Biomarkers of Alzheimer Disease in Dementia Development
JAMA Network Open
Score: 0.70
Published: 2026-04-17T00:00:00+00:00 Tags: MRI, neurodegeneration
Discusses blood biomarkers related to Alzheimer’s, which could tie into neuroimaging studies of brain aging and neurodegeneration.
RSS summary
This cohort study assesses whether anemia among adults aged 60 years or older is associated with incident dementia risk and blood biomarkers of Alzheimer disease pathology, neurodegeneration, and glial activation.
Correlation between peripheral and central inflammatory and neuronal injury markers in mild cognitive impairment patients: the role of blood-brain barrier status
Trans Psychiatry
Score: 0.50
Published: 2026-04-17T00:00:00+00:00 Tags: neuroimaging, neuroinflammation
Relevant due to focus on central inflammatory and neuronal markers which may interface with neuroimaging and brain aging models.

[Review] Cognitive resilience in ageing: determinants and interventions
Lancet Digital Health
Score: 0.40
Published: 2026-05-01T00:00:00+00:00
The article discusses cognitive resilience in aging, but lacks focus on neuroimaging-based aging biomarkers or advanced computational models.
RSS summary
Understanding the factors that contribute to the preservation of cognitive abilities into advanced age despite brain injury or disease is a key goal of ageing research. Up until the last two decades, the extent of brain pathology could only be fully appreciated at autopsy. Advances in laboratory and imaging biomarkers now mean that cognitive function can be understood in the context of markers of brain injury and specific pathologies (eg, Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy body disease, and cerebrovascul…
