Cerebrospinal fluid and plasma biomarkers in individuals at risk for genetic prion disease
Abstract Background Prion disease is neurodegenerative disease that is typically fatal within months of first symptoms. Clinical trials in this rapidly declining symptomatic patient population have proven challenging. Individuals at high lifetime risk for genetic prion disease can be identified deca...
