Despite less healthy lifestyles, higher rates of APOE ɛ4 allele carriage and smaller brains, night/shift workers had lower levels of Alzheimer’s disease pathology as measured by amyloid PET and plasma p-tau217 and approximately one-third of the risk of dementia by age 78 compared with non-night/shift workers. This evidence concerns the gene APOE and early-onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer disease.
