Abstract excerpt
<p>Cardiometabolic risk factors (CMRs) are associated with accelerated brain aging and increased risk for sex-dimorphic illnesses such as Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). Yet, it is unknown how CMRs interact with sex and apolipoprotein E-ε4 (APOE4), a known genetic risk factor for AD, to influence brain age across different life stages.
