Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. The mechanism of disease development and progression is not well understood, but increasing evidence suggests multifactorial etiology, with a number of genetic, environmental, and aging-related factors. There is a growing body of evidence that metabolic defects may contribute to this complex disease. To interrogate the relationship between system level metabolites and disease susceptibility and progression, the AD Metabolomics Consortium (ADMC) in partnership with AD Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) is creating a comprehensive biochemical database for patients in the ADNI1 cohort. We used the Biocrates Bile Acids platform to evaluate the association of metabolic levels with disease risk and progression. We detail the quantitative metabolomics data generated on the baseline samples from ADNI1 and ADNIGO/2 (370 cognitively normal, 887 mild cognitive impairment, and 305 AD). Similar to our previous reports on ADNI1, we present the tools for data quality control and initial analysis. This data descriptor represents the third in a series of comprehensive metabolomics datasets from the ADMC on the ADNI.

View all literature mentionsA public charity whose mission is to support the NIH in its mission to improve health, by forming and facilitating public-private partnerships for biomedical research and training. Its vision is Building Partnerships for Discovery and Innovation to Improve Health. The FNIH draws together the world''s foremost researchers and resources, pressing the frontier to advance critical discoveries. They are recognized as the number-one medical research charity in the countryleveraging support, and convening high level partnerships, for the greatest impact on the most urgent medical challenges we face today. Grants are awarded as part of a public-private partnership with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) on behalf of The Heart Truth in support of women''s heart health education and research. Funding for the Community Action Program is provided by the FNIH through donations from individuals and corporations including The Heart Truth partners Belk Department Stores, Diet Coke, and Swarovski. Successful biomedical research relies upon the knowledge, training and dedication of those who conduct it. Bringing multiple disciplines to bear on health challenges requires innovation and collaboration on the part of scientists. Foundation for NIH partnerships operate in a variety of ways and formats to recruit, train, empower and retain their next generation of researchers. From lectures and multi-week courses, to scholarships and awards through fellowships and residential training programs, their programs respond to the needs of scientists at every level and stage in their careers.

It contains the names of prescription and many over-the-counter drugs available in the United States and links its names to many of the drug vocabularies commonly used in pharmacy management and drug interaction software. It can mediate messages between systems not using the same software and vocabulary. * RxNorm Download Files - contain data consistent with the 2013AB UMLS Metathesaurus Release Files. * RxNorm API - web service for accessing the current RxNorm data set. * RxNorm Browser (RxNav) - a browser for several drug information sources, including RxNorm, RxTerms and National Drug File - Reference Terminology (NDF-RT) . * Current Prescribable Content - subset of currently prescribable drugs found in RxNorm. * RxTerms Drug Interface Terminology - a drug interface terminology derived from RxNorm for prescription writing or medication history recording
