  1. Abbreviation: AOR, adjusted odds ratio; DM, diabetes mellitus; LOAD, late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
  2. All models were adjusted for age, gender, education, and ApoE e4 status.
  3. a 2 copies of haplotype CAT was used as the reference group because it is a major haplotype.
  4. b p interaction value was obtained by using the dominant model.
