    Notes: Abstract The effect of the apolipoprotein E (apoE) genotype on the age at onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the relative risk conferred by the apoE ε4 allele were studied in 91 patients and 69 healthy age-matched controls. According to the age of presentation, which varied from 44 to 95 years, subjects were divided into four groups. The inheritance of at least one ɛ4 allele was associated with a significant reduction of the age at onset by 7.7 years among patients who were 83 years or older when examined. A weaker inverse relationship between the ɛ4 allele and the age at onset was also observed among patients who were aged 44–63 years at presentation. The effect of the c4 allele was minimal or absent in the two intermediate age categories. The relative risk of AD conferred by the inheritance of at least one £4 allele showed no consistent age-related pattern. The overall risk expressed as an odds ratio was 5.0 (95% CI 2.4–10.5). With respect to the limitations of the study, we tentatively conclude (1) that the effect of the apoE ɛ4 allele on the age at onset is not restricted to AD patients of a particular age, in accordance with current hypotheses on the role of apoE gene products in the biology of AD; (2) that the relative risk of AD associated with the ɛ4 allele is not significantly modulated by age. Although the apoE ɛ4 allele is an important susceptibility factor for AD occurring in middle age as well as in later life, it is of limited value in routine clinical diagnosis and should not be used for predictive testing in asymptomatic individuals.

    Description / Table of Contents: Synthesis and Crystal Structures of the Polyellurido Complexes [K(15-Crown-5)2]2[MTe7] with M = Zn and HgThe title compounds were obtained in the presence of 15-crown 5 from solutions of zinc and mercury acetate, respectively, in DMF by addition of a solution of K2Te3 in DMF at 0°C (M = Zn) and -50°C (M = Hg). They form black crystal needles with metallic luster. Their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. The structures of [K(15-crown-5)2]2ZnTe7 and [K(15-crown-5)2]2HgTe7 show two-dimensional disorder as evidence by diffuse scattering. The averaged structures that were determined with the Bragg reflexions correspond to space group Pbcn and have very similar lattice parameters. Nevertheless, the structures differ. [HgTe7]2- ions consist of two condensed five membered rings. They are arranged to form strands in the c direction; within of one strand the ions have a definite orientation, but in different strands two different orientations occur randomly. A [ZnTe7]2- ion can be thought of consisting of a Zn2+ ion, a Te42- ion bonded in a chelate manner and a Te32- ion bonded with one terminal Te atom to the Zn2+. The [ZnTe7]2- ions are associated to strands in the c direction with two different strand orientations occuring randomly.
    Notes: Die Titelverbindungen entstehen aus Lösungen der Acetate von Zink bzw. Quecksilber in DMF bei Anwesenheit von 15-Krone-5 nach Zugabe einer Lösung von K2Te3 in DMF bei 0°C (M = Zn) bzw. -50°C (M = Hg). Die Verbindungen bilden schwarze, metallisch glänzende Kristallnadeln, die wir durch röntgenographische Strukturanalysen charakterisiert haben. Die Kristallstrukturen von [K(15-Krone-5)2]2[ZnTe7] und [K(15-Krone-5)2]2[HgTe7] sind zweidimensional fehlgeordnet, wie die entsprechende diffuse Streuung zeigt. Die Überlagerungsstrukturen, die mit Hilfe der Braggschen Reflexe bestimmt wurden, entsprechen bei beiden Verbindungen der Raumgruppe Pbcn bei sehr Ähnlichen Gitterparametern. Trotzdem unterscheiden sich die Strukturen. Die [HgTe7]2--Ionen bestehen aus zwei kondensierten Fünferringen. Sie sind zu Strängen längs c angeordnet, wobei sie innerhalb eines Stranges eine definierte Orientierung haben, aber von Strang zu Strang eine von zwei entgegengesetzten Orientierungen statistisch vorkommt. Ein [ZnTe7]2--Ion kann man sich aufgebaut denken aus einem Zn2+-Ion, einem chelatartig gebundenen Te42--Ion und einem Te32--Ion, das über ein terminales Te-Atom an das Zn2+ gebunden ist. Die [ZnTe7]2--Ionen sind zu Strängen längs c assoziiert, wobei statistisch zwei Strangorientierungen vorkommen.

The compound consists of [Sr(15-crown-5)2]2+ ions in which the strontium ion is coordinated by the oxygen atoms of the crown ether molecules in a sandwich-like fashion, and of Se92- ions with a chain structure, which has a topolocical resemblance with the bicyclic ion Se102-.
