ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVES:To examine the associations of APOE ?2?4 with the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in non-Latino whites. DESIGN:Prospective longitudinal cohort study. SETTING:Uniform Data Set from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC) between 2005 and August 2018 (data freeze in September 2018). PARTICIPANTS:Participants who were non-Latino white, had an APOE genotype available, first visit with dementia free for AD cohort and both dementia and MCI free for MCI cohort, and had a minimum of one follow-up visit (n = 11 871 for AD cohort, and n = 8305 for MCI cohort). MEASUREMENTS:The incidences of AD and MCI were determined based on consensus meetings at each Alzheimer's disease center. We used NACC-derived variables to define individuals experiencing incidents of AD and MCI at the initial visit as well as the follow-up visits. RESULTS:Among participants in the AD cohort (N = 11 871), ?2?4 accounted for 2.5%, ?2?2 accounted for 0.4%, ?2?3 accounted for 11.0%, ?4?4 accounted for 4.4%, ?3?4 accounted for 27.3%, and ?3?3 accounted for 54.4%. Over an average of 4.6?years follow-up, 1857 (15.6%) developed AD dementia, with the range from 6.0% to 35.2% across the six groups. Compared to ?3?3 carriers, ?2?4 carriers exhibited an increased risk of incident AD (18.4% vs 11.7%; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.74; 95% confidence interval [CI] =?1.32-2.30; P
