Table 3.

Adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for the association of midlife and late-life number of vascular risk factors with elevated SUVR (global cortex SUVR>1.2) overall and stratified by APOE ε4 genotype, N=322.

Overall (N=322) 0 APOE ε4 Alleles (n=220) 1 or 2 APOE ε4 Alleles (n=100)

No. with SUVR>1.2/Total No. (%) Adjusted OR (95% CI) No. with SUVR>1.2/Total No. (%) Adjusted OR (95% CI) No. with SUVR>1.2/Total No. (%) Adjusted OR (95% CI)
