Abstract
ALZHEIMER DISEASE (AD) is a formidable public health issue, affecting an estimated 12% of the population over the age of 65 years in the United States.1 Approaches that allow better anticipation of progression to dementia in healthy individuals would enhance current efforts aimed at preventing or slowing AD onset.2This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
