Education and occupation provide reserve in both ApoE ε4 carrier and noncarrier patients with probable Alzheimer’s disease
According to the reserve hypothesis, a high educational/occupational attainment can modulate Alzheimer’s disease (AD) clinical expression. The impact of the Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) ε4 allele on the reserve mechan...
