Welcome to Greg Rowland’s Alzheimer’s Research Report.
Each report now begins with a brief summary, allowing you to instantly assess its relevance, grasp the core insights, and decide if the full piece warrants a deeper dive.
Due to the significant amount of research and writing to bring each report to life, this is a subscription-only publication. We offer three ways to stay informed:
Monthly Subscription: $10 per month
Annual Subscription: $100 per year (Save $20 annually)
Founder’s Circle: $250 per year (Includes an exclusive monthly video conference to discuss emerging Alzheimer’s treatments in close detail)
I believe the value of a full month of my research reports matches (or exceeds!) the value of a single coffee and muffin. Another comparison, if you prefer a nice craft cocktail, is the Zig Zag Cafe in Seattle, where a cocktail will set you back $17. A full month of my research reports is only $10. And, I promise zero hangovers.
Please consider subscribing so this publication is sustainable. Thank you!
SUMMARY
Deep cervical lymphovenous anastomosis (DCLVA) is an exploratory microsurgical procedure developed in China to treat Alzheimer's disease by connecting neck lymphatic vessels to veins to accelerate brain waste clearance. Following rapid adoption across hundreds of hospitals with thousands of procedures performed, China’s National Health Commission restricted its use due to a lack of rigorous randomized trial data.
Is this procedure a viable Alzheimer’s treatment?
