Abstract

Sensitive and robust diagnostic biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) were sought using dynamic nonlinear models of the causal interrelationships among time-series (beat-to-beat) data of arterial blood pressure, end-tidal CO 2 and cerebral blood flow velocity collected in human subjects (4 AD patients and 4 control subjects). These models were based on Principal Dynamic Modes (PDM) and yielded a reliable biomarker for AD diagnosis in the form of the Effective CO 2 Reactivity Index (ECRI). The results from this initial set of subjects corroborated the efficacy of the ECRI biomarker for accurate AD diagnosis.
