## Abstract ## Background The association between late life depression and cerebroβvascular risk and cerebroβvascular disease is well established. Do similar links exist with late onset bipolar disorder? ## Aims and Objectives Patients with early onset (less than 60 years of age) bipolar disorde
We have used a serial MR image analysis technique previously developed for studies of cerebral atrophy in early-onset dementia and applied it to a study of late-onset dementia patients with images acquired using a different scanner and scan sequence. Validation and optimisation tests showed that wit
ApoE levels and chromosome 19 ApoE polymorphisms were measured in a sample of 156 Dutch families. Each pedigree consisted of parents aged 35-65 years and their twin offspring aged 14-21 years. A significant effect of the chromosome 19 apoE locus on quantitative plasma levels of apolipoprotein E was
