Abstract

Vascular and neurodegenerative pathologies are known to co-occur in Alzheimer disease, and were recently proposed to drive progression to dementia through independent pathways. A new study provides evidence in support of this hypothesis, by showing dissociation between the pathologies and regional brain metabolism. But might the two pathways converge?
