Assessing shared genetic and causal links between vascular calcification, Alzheimer's disease, and cognitive traits

2024-11-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Observational studies suggest a link between vascular calcification and dementia or cognitive decline, but the evidence is conflicting, and the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, we investigate the shared genetic and causal relationships between vascular calcification—coronary artery calcification (CAC) and abdominal aortic calcification (AAC)—and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), as well...
