Abstract
SYNAPSE LOSS in Alzheimer disease (AD) was initially reported in 19871 and was first correlated with cognitive decline in 1990.2 In a 1991 landmark study by Terry and colleagues,3 synapse loss was found to be the major correlate of cognitive impairment in AD. This has subsequently been confirmed by a number of studies.4-8Keywords
