Abstract
While the biomarkers available for Alzheimer's disease are continually expanding, including clinically approved blood tests, not all of the relationships between various biomarkers have been fully elucidated. In this study, we explore how regional brain metabolism, as measured by fludeoxyglucose-18 (FDG)-PET, relates to plasma biomarkers such as p-tau217, Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), phosphorylated-tau (p-tau)217/

The paper's code and data availability statement is in the Data section.
Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 2 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 0 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- no match between paragraphs and code yet;
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
Data
No dataset and no data link were found in the paper.
Data availability
Anonymized data will be shared by request from a qualified academic investigator for the sole purpose of replicating procedures and results presented in the article, and as long as data transfer is in agreement with the IRB of the involved institutions, which should be regulated in a material transfer agreement. Code that was generated for these analyses is available at https://

Versions
The history of this record: each version stored by the harvester or made by a correction of its authors or of the maintainers of its code, and what changed in its facts. The texts of the paper (its abstract, its availability statements) are not part of it; versions that changed only those are not listed.
