Impact of apolipoprotein ɛ4–cerebrospinal fluid beta‐amyloid interaction on hippocampal volume loss over 1 year in mild cognitive impairment

Abstract

The majority of studies relating amyloid pathology with brain volumes have been cross‐sectional. Apolipoprotein ɛ4 (APOE ɛ4), a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, is also known to be associated with hippocampal volume loss. No studies have considered the effects of amyloid pathology and APOE ɛ4 together on longitudinal volume loss.
