Apolipoprotein E gender effects on cognitive performance in age-associated memory impairment

David Bartrés-Faz et al. J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci. 2002 Winter.

Abstract

Among 100 individuals with age-associated memory impairment (AAMI), APOE E4 carriers performed worse on memory. However, when subjects were considered by gender, this effect was only observed in females. APOE E4 may have a more robust cognitive influence on female than on male individuals with AAMI.
