GWAS on family history of Alzheimer’s disease

2018-01-15

Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a public health priority for the 21 st century. Risk reduction currently revolves around lifestyle changes with much research trying to elucidate the biological underpinnings. Using self-report of parental history of Alzheimer’s dementia for case ascertainment in a genome-wide association study of over 300,000 participants from UK Biobank (32,222 maternal cases, 16,613 paternal cases)...
