and 2 indicate that FHVL’s showed significantly less memory decline relative to S/S’s over 7-9 years in WRAP and 3 years in ADNI, whereas FH+ VL’s showed more decline. FHVL’s showed less MTL CT atrophy over 3 years than S/S’s in ADNI (Figure 3), whereas FH+ VL’s showed more atrophy. FHVL’s had less MTL hypometabolism, such as in WRAP (Figure 4). Finally, FHand FH+ VL’s respectively showed 20% lower and higher IR in both cohorts. IR mediated FH*TOMM40 effects on brain pathology. Conclusions: Findings in both late middle-aged and elder cohorts suggest that FH strongly changes the effect of TOMM40 on cognitive, neuroimaging, and metabolic outcomes. Accounting for FH may resolve discrepancies in the TOMM40 literature.
