    Summary
    Both treatments had a significant therapeutic effect, but the proportion of responders to different kinds of therapy depended on ApoE genotype.

    Summary · context
    The role of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype in the forming of response to various kinds of pathogenetic therapy of Alzheimer's disease (AD) was studied in two samples of patients receiving cholinergic or neurotrophic therapy during four months.
