Use of genetic variation as biomarkers for mild cognitive impairment and progression of mild cognitive impairment to dementia.

Abstract excerpt

Cognitive impairment is prevalent in the elderly. The high estimates of conversion to dementia have spurred the interest in identification of genetic risk factors associated with development of cognitive impairment and or its progression. However, despite notable achievements in human genetics over the years, in particular technological advances in gene mapping and in statistical methods that relate genetic...
