Table 1 Genetic correlations between AD/ADRD, PD, and ALS according to three genetic correlation methods. Tabular version of Fig. 1. Square brackets indicate 95% confidence intervals. For comparison, genetic correlations calculated from a previous study [43] are also shown. Wingo et al. used an older ADRD GWAS (Jansen et al. 2019 [44] instead of Bellenguez et al. 2022 [22]) and used a version of the summary statistics from Nalls et al. 2019 [29]  that did not include 23andMe participants
