Table 3 Lead variants for ADRD or ALS associated with both disorders at a family-wise error rate of 5%. Odds ratios and p-values for AD (from Kunkle et al.) are also included as a sensitivity analysis. A1 = effect allele; A2 = non-effect allele; OR = odds ratio; PPshared/distinct = posterior probability that the two disorders share the same causal variant/have two distinct causal variants at the locus according to colocalization analysis. For ADRD, odds ratios and p-values are from the full 788,989 participants where available (i.e., for ADRD lead variants) and from the 487,511 participants with genome-wide summary statistics otherwise (i.e., for the ALS lead variant)

From: Shared genetic risk loci between Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
