Neuroimaging within the Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer’s Network (DIAN): PET and MRI
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network (DIAN) Observational Study is an international collaboration studying autosomal dominant Alzheimer disease (ADAD). This rare form of Alzheimer disease (AD) is caused by mutations in the presenilin 1 (PSEN1) , presenilin 2 (PSEN2) , or amyloid precursor protein ( APP ) genes. As individuals from these families have a 50% chance of inheriting the familial mutation, this provides researchers with a well-matched cohort of carriers vs non-carriers for case-control studies. An important trait of ADAD is that the age at symptom onset is highly predictable and consistent for each specific mutation, allowing researchers to estimate an individual’s point in their disease time course prior to symptom onset. Although ADAD represents only a small proportion (approximately 0.1%) of all AD cases, studying this form of AD allows researchers to investigate preclinical AD and the progression of changes that occur within the brain prior to AD symptom onset. Furthermore, the young age at symptom onset (typically 30-60 years) means age-related comorbidities are much less prevalent than in sporadic AD, thereby allowing AD pathophysiology to be studied independent of these confounds. A major goal of the DIAN Observational Study is to create a global resource for AD researchers. To that end, the current manuscript provides an overview of the DIAN magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) protocols and highlights the key imaging results of this study to date.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
