Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition in which genetic predisposition plays a key role, yet the sex-specific mechanisms linking genetic risk to early cognitive changes remain unclear. This study examined the impact of polygenic risk scores (PRS) on early cognitive changes in 318 cognitively unimpaired participants from the ALFA+ cohort, a nested longitudinal cohort from the ALFA...
