Brief Summary

  1. 1.Apolipoprotein E gene (ApoE) is the most important genetic factor for Alzheimer disease (AD) and an important genetic factor for outcome of brain injury situations.
  2. 2.Function magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a powerful tool for study of both brain regional functions and brain network.
  3. 3.Study about genetic contribution on fMRI is an emerging concept, which will help on understanding about how the genetics affecting the brain function.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • amyloid load by amyloid-PET examination

    The primary end point of this study is the quantity of amyloid load in brain. The amyloid load will be calculated based on the results of AV45 PET study. The comparison between mTBI and controls will be conducted by ANOVA test. The confounders include vascular risks for AD, such as hypertension, diabetes, and APOE genotypes, education.
