New Alzheimer’s Disease Pathways identified

New Alzheimer's disease pathways identified
Path model of main findings. This path model summarizes the main-effect mediation model. Circles indicate principal components or latent variables, rectangles represent observed variables. Arrows either indicate PC loadings or structural regression paths. Thicker lines correspond to stronger loadings, solid structural paths are genome-wide significant (p < 5 × 10−8), and dashed lines are suggestive (p < 0.008). Coefficients indicate either the effect of one effect allele on a biomarker PC in SD, or the effect of one SD higher biomarker PC score on latent AD in SD. Note: all paths are adjusted for assessment age, sex, genetic ancestry, and study but are omitted from figure. Credit: Genome Medicine (2023). DOI: 10.1186/s13073-023-01233-z
