Figure 2

Sampling frame for convenience sample of Alzheimer's disease subjects and normal controls. Green shows two samples of normal controls (CN): CN1 is highly selected and CN2 is randomly sampled. In a cohort of Alzheimer's disease subjects (AD) and CN1, an association will be found between arteriosclerosis and Alzheimer's disease. In a cohort of AD and CN2, no such association will be found.
