APOE and Alzheimer disease: While lower ApoE concentration in whole plasma was not associated with either incident dementia (HR = 1.00; 95% CI: 0.91–1.10) or AD (HR = 1.01: 95% CI: 0.92 to 1.12), it was associated with higher ADAS-cog scores, indicating worse cognitive function (β coefficient = 0.08; 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.18).
