Abstract excerpt

CONTEXT: Evidence exists that the incidence of Alzheimer disease (AD), as well as risk attributable to specific genetic factors such as apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype, may vary considerably among ethnic groups. Family studies of probands with AD offer an opportunity to evaluate lifetime risk of dementia among relatives of these probands. OBJECTIVE: To compare lifetime dementia risk estimates among relatives of...
