## Abstract ## Background When comparing with early‐onset Alzheimer's disease (EO‐AD) and late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LO‐AD), some symptomatological differences in clinical features can be seen between them. Rapid progression, more severe language problems or visuospatial dysfunction occur mor
## Abstract We illustrate the use of Gibbs sampling for combined segregation and linkage analysis using late‐onset families in the Duke Alzheimer's disease (AD) data set. The disease penetrance model is flexible, incorporating variable age of disease onset, sporadic cases, and unknown or uncertain
## Abstract The effect of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ϵ4 allele on age of onset was analyzed in two groups of families with early‐onset Alzheimer's disease (AD), (1) Volga German (VG) kindreds, in which AD is caused by an unknown locus and (2) early‐onset non‐VG families showing evidence of linkage
