Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the effect of education on the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS: 373 patients diagnosed with AD and 559 healthy control individuals without first degree relatives with known dementia, were included in a case-control study (2003-2006). All individuals were genotyped for APOE alleles. Odds ratio (OR) for developing AD was calculated by binary logistic regression, with the number of...
