Fig. 6. Results from Bayesian analysis of potentially modifiable risk factors in the UK Biobank population.

There is partial evidence to support a higher diastolic and systolic blood pressure among participants with an Alzheimer’s disease (AD) score > 0.5, indicated by a mean effect size lying outside the Region Of Practical Equivalence (ROPE) but with a distribution overlapping with the ROPE. No other risk factors were associated with a positive AD score. The mean of the AD score negative group is represented by the dotted vertical line with the ROPE denoted by the shaded area on each side. The 75% credible interval is denoted by the thick bars and the 95% credible interval by the thin bars.
