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
