In this study, we examined 241 non-demented Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative participants to investigate the associations among age, white matter hyperintensities (WMH), hypertension, hyperlipidemia, body mass index (BMI), plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 measured by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry, and 18F-florbetapir Aβ PET as well as their prediction of longitudinal adjusted hippocampal volume (aHCV) and cognition in APOE-ε4 carriers and non-carriers. The gene discussed is APOE; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
