#Alzheimer is associated with #heterogeneous clinical presentations. Patients develop symptoms at different ages (even sporadic AD can start early) and clinical syndromes vary: not everyone shows a “typical” amnestic syndrome (which is not very sensitive nor specific to AD!)

Specific non-amnestic syndromes are often associated with AD, like #PosteriorCorticalAtrophy (PCA, the visual variant of AD) or the logopenic variant of Primary Progressive Aphasia (lvPPA).
#APOE4 is associated with an earlier onset but also a more amnestic syndrome.
