Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between the P300 event-related potential, neuropsychological measures of memory, subjective memory complaints (SMCs), and indicators of psychosocial functioning. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS In this cross-sectional study of 79 community-based older adults, aged 60-75 years, participants completed online surveys and in-person neuropsychological and electroencephalogram (EEG) assessments. MEASUREMENTS Measures included: the Change subscale of the Metamemory in Adulthood Questionnaire, NIH Toolbox Emotions battery (Perceived Stress and Psychological Well-Being), Geriatric Depression Scale, Geriatric Anxiety Scale, electrocortical measures (EEG), California Verbal Learning Test, 3rd Edition, and diagnostic ratings for mild and major neurocognitive disorders based on full neuropsychological battery, clinical interview, and two-clinician consensus. RESULTS P300 amplitude was associated with long-delay verbal memory recall and diagnostic rating. SMCs were not associated with objective memory or diagnostic rating. SMCs were associated with higher perceived stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms and lower psychological well-being. CONCLUSIONS Neural indicators such as the P300 may be useful for early detection of cognitive impairment. SMCs were not a reliable indicator of early memory impairment in relation to neuropsychological or neural indicators, but may be a useful indicator of unreported stress and mood symptoms in clinical settings.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the influence of apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype on cortical activity, using the event-related potential P300 in healthy older adults and individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS A cohort of 37 healthy older adults and 48 with AD participated in this study and completed an auditory oddball task using electroencephalographic equipment with 21 channels (10-20 system). APOE genotyping was obtained by real-time PCR. RESULTS AD presented increased P300 latency and lower P300 amplitude, compared to healthy older adults. AD APOE ε4 carriers presented increased P300 latency in F3 (420.7 ± 65.8 ms), F4 (412.0 ± 49.0 ms), C4 (413.0 ± 41.1 ms) and P3 (420.4 ± 55.7 ms) compared to non-carriers (F3 = 382.5 ± 56.8 ms, p < 0.01; F4 = 372.2 ± 56.7 ms, p < 0.01; C4 = 374.2 ± 51.7 ms, p < 0.01; P3 = 384.4 ± 44.4 ms, p < 0.01). Healthy older adults APOE ε4 carriers presented lower Fz amplitude (2.6 ± 1.5 μV) compared to non-carriers (4.9 ± 2.9 μV; p = 0.02). Linear regression analysis showed that being a carrier of APOE ε4 allele remained significantly associated with P300 latency even after adjusting for sex, age, and cognitive grouping. APOE ε4 allele increases P300 latency (95% CI 0.11-0.98; p = 0.02). CONCLUSION APOE ε4 allele negatively impacts cortical activity in both healthy older adults and AD individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Apolipoprotein ε4 allele (APOE4) is the strongest genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and seems to be related to cognitive decline and damaged event-related potential P300, which is a sensitive measure to assess cognitive processing. OBJECTIVE This research aims to critically review the existing scientific evidence regarding the association between APOE4 and P300. METHODS A systematic review was carried out up to January 2020 on the following databases: Web of Science, Scopus and Medline/PubMed. Articles were considered for inclusion if they are original research that provided information regarding the association between APOE4 and P300, available in English, Spanish, or Portuguese, and available in full text. The methodological quality of the studies selected was evaluated using the quality assessment tool for observational cohort and cross-sectional studies recommended by Cochrane. RESULTS Out of 993 studies, 14 met the inclusion criteria. The results obtained showed that APOE4 is related to a longer P300 latency. However, the data supplied do not allow us to confirm if this relationship also occurs in amplitude measures. Moreover, it was observed that APOE genotype may influence P300 in different ages, from younger individuals to demented older people. CONCLUSION Evidence shows that APOE4 negatively influences cortical activities related to cognitive functions, as indicated by P300.

Abstract
RATIONALE There is strong evidence that nicotine can enhance cognitive functions and growing evidence that this effect may be larger in young healthy APOE ε4 carriers. However, the moderating effects of the APOE ε4 allele on cognitive impairments caused by nicotine deprivation in chronic smokers have not yet been studied with brain indices. OBJECTIVE We sought to determine whether young female carriers of the APOE ε4 allele, relative to noncarriers, would exhibit larger abstinence-induced decreases in P3b amplitude during a two-stimulus auditory oddball task. METHODS We compared parietal P3bs in female chronic smokers with either APOE ε3/ε3 (n = 54) or ε3/ε4 (n = 20) genotype under nicotine-sated conditions and after 12-17-h nicotine deprivation. RESULTS Nicotine deprivation significantly reduced P3b amplitudes in APOE ε4 carriers, but not in APOE-ε3/ε3 individuals, such that the difference seen prior to nicotine deprivation was eliminated. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that subjects with the APOE ε4 allele are more sensitive to nicotine, which could influence smoking patterns, the risk for nicotine dependence, and the cognitive effects of nicotine use in these individuals.

Abstract
The combined effects of metabolic syndrome and the apolipoprotein E and CYP46 genotypes on the risk of cognitive decline has yet to be determined among Taiwanese Chinese. Two hundred and nine mentally healthy middle-aged and older adults were assessed for metabolic syndrome, cognitive function using the Cognitive Abilities Screening Instrument, Mini-Mental State Examination, ApoE, and CYP46 polymorphisms. There were no differences in cognitive performance, ApoE epsilon4 (ε4) carrier status, or CYP46 genotypes between participants with and those without metabolic syndrome. The ε4 carriers and participants with the AA allele of CYP46 had significantly lower mental manipulation score. Metabolic syndrome and ε4 had synergistic effects on cognitive decline. Therefore, the ε4 carriers and participants with the AA allele of CYP46 have decreased mental manipulation ability. The metabolic syndrome may play a role in subtle cognitive dysfunction in ε4 carriers among Taiwanese Chinese.
