Abstract excerpt

We examined the distribution of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphism in two Caucasian populations of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients referred to dementia clinics; one in Gerona, Spain (66 AD patients, 49 controls), and the other in Pittsburgh, Pa., USA (209 AD patients, 58 controls). The presence of the APOE*4 allele was a significant risk for developing AD in both cohorts: Gerona (odds ratio = 2.34, CI:...
