概括
综合性多基因风险评分 (iPRS-DEM) 识别了超出APOE的痴呆风险,改善了跨不同人群的预测. 该工具增强了临床试验和预防计划的风险分层.
科学领域:
- 遗传学 是一个遗传学.
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 流行病学 流行病学
背景情况:
- 综合性多基因风险评分 (iPRS) 可以捕捉导致痴呆的神经退行和血管因素.
- 识别患有痴呆症高风险的个体对于有效的干预和改进的预测模型至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在欧洲和东亚人口中开发和评估痴呆症综合性多基因风险评分 (iPRS-DEM).
- 评估iPRS-DEM在痴呆风险分层中的表现,独立地和与APOE ε4结合.
- 确定iPRS-DEM在不同队列的概括性,包括社区居住的老年人和记忆诊所的参与者.
主要方法:
- 使用阿尔茨海默病的遗传数据和欧洲人的23种血管/神经退行性特征 (不包括APOE) 开发了iPRS-DEM.
- 在多个队列中评估了iPRS-DEM:社区居住的老年人 (N=3702),多祖先生物库 (N=130,797名欧洲人;105,404名非欧洲人) 和记忆诊所参与者 (N=2032).
主要成果:

Alzheimer's Disease: Overview
418
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a continually advancing neurodegenerative disorder, distinguished by escalating memory loss, cognitive dysfunction, and dementia. The disease unfolds in three stages: preclinical, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia. Its onset is insidious, and the progression gradual, with the cause not well explained by other disorders.
The clinical diagnosis of AD hinges on the presence of memory and other cognitive impairments. Biomarkers, such as changes in Aβ...

Genome-wide Association Studies-GWAS
12.3K
Genome-wide association studies or GWAS are used to identify whether common SNPs are associated with certain diseases. Suppose specific SNPs are more frequently observed in individuals with a particular disease than those without the disease. In that case, those SNPs are said to be associated with the disease. Chi-square analysis is performed to check the probability of the allele likely to be associated with the disease.

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment
145
Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Human Genetics
516
Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...

Dementia

Dementia is a collective term for cognitive disorders primarily affecting memory, thinking, and reasoning. It is not a specific disease but a syndrome, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common cause, accounting for approximately 60-80% of cases. Other types include vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Dementia affects millions worldwide, particularly older adults, though it is not a normal part of aging.
