Epigenetic scores of blood-based proteins as biomarkers of general cognitive function and brain health

Abstract Background Epigenetic Scores (EpiScores) for blood protein levels have been associated with disease outcomes and measures of brain health, highlighting their potential usefulness as clinical biomarkers. They are typically derived via penalised regression, whereby a linear weighted sum of DN...
