The role of heredity in late-onset Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia. A twin study.

Archives of general psychiatry - 1 Mar 1997

Bergem A L, Engedal K, Kringlen E

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: This study compares the relative importance of heredity and environment in the development of Alzheimer disease and vascular dementia. The relationship between apolipoprotein E and dementia is also tested. METHODS: A total of 23,000 cognitively impaired subjects from Norwegian institu...
