Age-related differences in episodic memory: A synergistic contribution of genetic and physiological vascular risk factors.
21 May 2012
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Vascular risk is associated with impairments in age-sensitive cognitive functions. However, age-associated differences in vascular risk and cognitive functioning can be explained in part by genetic factors, such as the presence of ε4 allele of the Apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene. Although the links between these factors and cognitive deficits are frequently reported, their joint impact on healthy adults...
