Genetic risk for neurodegenerative disorders, and its overlap with cognitive ability and physical function

2017-11-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>INTRODUCTION</h4> It is unclear whether polygenic risk for neurodegenerative disease is associated with cognitive performance and physical health. <h4>METHODS</h4> This study tested whether polygenic scores for Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), or frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are associated with cognitive performance and physical health. Group-based analyses were performed to co...
