Abstract

Objectives. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a high-risk condition for progression to Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Vascular health is a key mechanism underlying age-related cognitive decline and neurodegeneration. AD-related genetic risk factors may be associated with preclinical cognitive status changes. We examine independent and cross-domain interactive effects of vascular and genetic markers for predicting MCI status and stability.
