Use our Contact Form to alert us of discrepancies, errors in the representation of study details, or to notify us of your association study regarding this gene.
Design:  “CC” (case-control), “FBAT” (family-based)
Type:  “GWA” (genome-wide association study); “CWA” (chromosome-wide association study); “LSA” (other large-scale association study); “cSNP” (coding-region SNP)
Source:  Source of case population -> “CL” (clinic-based), “PO” (population-based), or “CO” (community-based).
Platform:  Please refer to orignal publication for exact description.
# SNPs:  Approximate number of polymorphisms covered.
Onset Age and Age:  Mean or median age at onset or examination, respectively.
DX:  Criteria used to determine AD diagnosis -> "C" (clinical AD diagnosis), "N" (neuropathological AD diagnosis), "M" (mixed, i.e. AD sample contains both clinical and neuropathological cases), "U" (unknown).
Featured Genes:  Dropdown menu of genes highlighted (“featured”) in original publication as potential AD susceptibility genes/loci after completion of all analyses, e.g. replication in multiple samples.
(-) :  No information provided.
