Fig. 3: Association of APOE e2/e4 genotype with Braak stage.
From: Association of APOE e2 genotype with Alzheimer’s and non-Alzheimer’s neurodegenerative pathologies

Within each APOE genotype column, colored rows represent the relative proportion of cases in each severity stage. These proportions are expressed as percentages and add to 100. Note the similarity of e2/e4 cases to e3/e4 cases with respect to high levels of tau pathology. Braak stage 0 = no pathology; stage 6 = severe neocortical pathology.
