Abstract excerpt

A number of studies have explored the relationships of apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype and education with dementia over the last decade. However, observations concerning the possible modifying effect of education on the APOE-dementia association are limited. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that education may decrease the risk of APOE ε4 on dementia. Pooled data from 3 major...
