Haptoglobin Structural Variant Modifies APOE Risk Effect in 5155 Non‐Hispanic White and 4133 African Americans

We find that a structural variant of HP modifies the risk effect of APOE alleles. Our findings in an independent dataset corroborate elements of our previous discovery of this interaction effect.
