Background: Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is a known genetic risk factor for dementia. Midlife cardiovascular risk factors are associated with lower cognitive performance and increased dementia risk. However, little is known whether cardiovascular risk factors mediate or modify the associations between APOE and cognitive decline in late-life.

Method: We analyzed a subset of the Chicago Health and Aging Project, comprising 3,496 biracial community-dwelling older adults (58% African American & 64% women; mean follow-up=4.6 years) with lipid panel and longitudinal cognitive tests.
Background: It is unclear whether inflammation, i.e., high interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, and genetic risk, i.

To date, more than 70 genetic loci associated with AD have been identified but they explain only a small proportion of AD heritability. Structural variants (SVs) may explain some of the missing AD heritability, and specifically, their segregation in AD families has yet to be investigated.

Anthropogenic climate change is projected to become a major driver of biodiversity loss, destabilizing the ecosystems on which human society depends. As the planet rapidly warms, the disruption of ecological interactions among populations, species and their environment, will likely drive positive feedback loops, accelerating the pace and magnitude of biodiversity losses. We propose that, even without invoking such amplifying feedback, biodiversity loss should increase nonlinearly with warming because of the non-uniform distribution of biodiversity.
