Polygenic effects on the risk of Alzheimer’s disease in the Japanese population

Polygenic effects on the risk of Alzheimer’s disease in the Japanese population

Abstract Background Polygenic effects have been proposed to account for some disease phenotypes; these effects are calculated as a polygenic risk score (PRS). This score is correlated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-related phenotypes, such as biomarker abnormalities and brain atrophy, and is associat...
