Description
To better capture the polygenic architecture of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), we developed a joint genetic score, MetaGRS. We incorporated genetic variants for AD and 24 other traits from two independent cohorts, NACC (n = 3,174, training set) and UPitt (n = 2,053, validation set). We also conducted APOE-stratified analyses to assess the role of the e4 allele on risk prediction. This dataset includes regression results for the MetaGRS to predict Alzheimer’s disease survival (Cox regression) or disease status (logistic regression).
