However, the pathological mechanisms linking NPS, cognition, and biomarkers remain unclear. It was hypothesised that relationships between NPS and cognition would be mediated or moderated by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarker levels in individuals with YOD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924270825100513_as2\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective, cross-sectional study included 46 participants with YOD (24 with Alzheimer\u2019s disease [AD], 22 with non-AD dementias) diagnosed at the Neuropsychiatry Centre, Royal Melbourne Hospital. NPS were measured using the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale and Cambridge Behavioural Inventory-Revised. Cognition was assessed using standardised neuropsychological assessments. CSF amyloid-\u03b2 (A\u03b242), phosphorylated tau 181 (P-tau181), total tau (T-tau), and neurofilament light chain protein (NfL) were analysed. General linear models (GLMs) examined associations between biomarkers, cognition, and NPS.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924270825100513_as3\">\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Higher P-tau181 (unstandardised beta [B] = \u22120.10, 95% confidence interval = [\u22120.20, \u22120.01]) and T-tau (B = \u22120.06 [\u22120.13, \u22120.01]) levels were associated with poorer memory recall in participants with YOD. In non-AD dementias, higher T-tau levels predicted greater NPS severity (B = 0.76 [0.06, 3.52]). NfL showed no significant associations with NPS or cognition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"S0924270825100513_as4\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Tau-related neurodegeneration (P-tau181 and T-tau) appears more closely linked to memory impairment in YOD than axonal injury markers such as NfL. In non-AD dementias, T-tau was additionally associated with behavioural symptom severity, suggesting tau-related mechanisms across subtypes. These associations require validation in larger, longitudinal, and multimodal studies to clarify temporal and mechanistic pathways.<\/jats:p>\n
