Article Synopsis
- Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, and its prevalence is rising, especially in older populations, prompting extensive genome-wide association studies (GWAS) focused on its genetic factors.*
-
- This study utilized data from 931 individuals to conduct 19 separate GWAS analyses, examining both brain imaging and cognitive performance traits over time, which showed significant genetic associations in specific genes linked to memory recall.*
-
- Results included notable genetic signals related to memory performance, including those on chromosomes 2 and 6, as well as a significant finding on the X chromosome, revealing new insights into the genetic underpinnings of cognitive function in AD.*
