简要总结
The proposed pharmacist-led study is a feasibility pilot trial for the management of vascular risk factors of hypertension and hypercholesterolemia in 10 APOE ε4 carriers, 50-75, at-risk for dementia. All participants will receive angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) for high blood pressure, and hydrophilic statins (or a non-statin alternative) for high cholesterol over a six-month period.
