Abstract
The present exposition of the AD-related pathological process rests upon some basic assumptions:
Keywords
- Present Exposition
- Pathological Processes
- Vulnerable Neuronal Types
- Nucleus Lateralis Tuberis
- Cognitive Reserve
These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
