Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We assessed whether the apolipoprotein ε4 (APOE4) genotype affects the relationship of variability in long-term glycemic control (measured by HbA1c SD of multiple measurements) with white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: WMH volume was generated from structural T1 and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MRI in each subject. The...
