0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Neurofilament light distinguished neurodegenerative or neurological disorder from psychiatric disorder with an area under the curve of 0.94 (95% confidence intervals = [0.89, 0.98]); a cut-off of 1332 pg/mL was associated with 87% sensitivity and 90% specificity. 31220922 2020
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a unique biomarker related to axonal damage and neural cell death, which is elevated in a number of neurological disorders, and can be detected in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), as well as blood, serum, or plasma samples. 31385229 2020
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Neurofilament light chain as a biomarker in neurological disorders. 30967444 2019
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Elevated levels of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neuronal injury markers (neurofilament light chain [NF-L] and total tau protein [t-tau]) and of the astroglial marker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) are found in etiologically different neurological disorders affecting the peripheral and the central nervous system. 31087810 2019
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE We examined whether NF-L is elevated differentially following uncomplicated mTBI in older adults with pre-injury neurological disorders. 30843469 2019

Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Increased CSF Neurofilament light chain (NFL) concentrations have been reported in several neurological disorders, including prion diseases. 30309804 2019

Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) neurodegeneration biomarkers such as neurofilament light chain (NF-L), total tau (t-tau), and the tau pathology marker phosphorylated tau (p-tau) are related to mortality in other neurological disorders (eg, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease), but have not been investigated in this respect in parkinsonian disorders. 31070772 2019
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Here, we review what is known about the structure and function of neurofilaments, discuss analytical aspects and knowledge of age-dependent normal ranges of neurofilaments and provide a comprehensive overview of studies on neurofilament light chain as a marker of axonal injury in different neurological disorders, including multiple sclerosis, neurodegenerative dementia, stroke, traumatic brain injury, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Parkinson disease. 30171200 2018
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE To confirm the large body of evidence for NfL, we developed a new ELISA method and here we present the performance characteristics of this new ELISA for CSF NfL in different neurological disorders. 29370869 2018
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE Taken together, our results reveal that as well as acting as reliable biomarkers of neuronal damage, antibodies to NF-L exacerbate neurological disease, suggesting that antibodies to NF-L generated during disease may also be pathogenic and play a role in the progression of neurodegeneration. 28718500 2017
CUI: C0027765
Disease: nervous system disorder
nervous system disorder
0.100 AlteredExpression group BEFREE We conducted a study including 60 sporadic and 19 familial ALS patients, 206 reference patients with other neurological disorders and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls to test the hypothesis that cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of neurofilament light (NF-L) protein, a marker of axonal degeneration, might provide diagnostic and prognostic information on the disease. 17903209 2007
