Increasing attention has been paid to the prominence of myoclonus in Alzheimer's disease of early onset. This was particularly striking in many family members affected by autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease linked to chromosome 14, as recently reported by Haltia and colleagues { 11 and by Lampe a

## Abstract The effect of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) Ο΅4 allele on age of onset was analyzed in two groups of families with earlyβonset Alzheimer's disease (AD), (1) Volga German (VG) kindreds, in which AD is caused by an unknown locus and (2) earlyβonset nonβVG families showing evidence of linkage
We examined the association of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype and the risk of early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD) in 209 white early-onset sporadic cases (43% male) and 303 white controls (48% male) of similar age distribution. The risk of AD was significantly increased, relative to the 313 genot
Evidence of delayed progression is the primary mechanism for demonstrating therapeutic e cacy in clinical trials in Alzheimer's disease. In the major trials of therapeutic treatment of AD, to date, measures based on clinical judgement and cognitive performance, instead of mortality, have been used a
