Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To determine the relationship between apolipoprotein E (APOE) epsilon4 and Alzheimer's disease (AD) in the Mexican Mestizo population, as well as its effects on the cognitive profile of AD and elderly Mestizos without dementia. DESIGN: Cross-sectional analysis of a cohort study. SETTING: Evaluations were conducted at the geriatrics clinic of an academic medical hospital in Mexico City. PARTICIPANTS:...
