Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Alzheimer's Disease Research Center say that several biomarkers have been identified, but they are not ready for clinical usage as of yet pointing to a lack of standardization about how the tests are performed.

This marks the end of the line for one of Europe's most popular newspapers.

The newspaper's last issue said - On this historic day, after 8,674 editions we'll miss YOU, our 7.5 million readers.
