Abstract excerpt
The apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele is the most important genetic risk factor for sporadic Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet its mechanisms in AD pathology and cognitive decline remain unclear. Using a sliding-time window approach to directly quantify the instantaneous fluctuations of various local metrics based on continuous time series and calculate voxel-wise concordance of these metrics, we explored the impact...
