From Alzheimers.gov: The researchers estimated a lifetime risk of dementia of 42% after age 55, more than double previous estimates. The dementia risk was 4% by age 75 and 20% by age 85, with the majority of the risk occurring after 85. Certain groups had greater risks than others. For example, women had a higher lifetime risk due to survival to older ages, 48% versus 35% in men. People with two APOEε4 copies had a lifetime risk of almost 60%, versus 48% for those with one copy and 39% for those with none.
