The relationship between the epsilon 4 allele of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE-epsilon4) located on chromosome 19 and Alzheimer's disease is well documented among Caucasian populations. However, the findings of research addressing the link between APOE polymorphism and neurocognitive functioning in populations of African origin from around the world have been equivocal. Therefore, the current study explored the relation of APOE-epsilon4 with cognitive impairment in a sample of community-dwelling English-speaking elderly blacks.
