Table 2. Risk-weighted burden analysis results for APOE and 9 LOAD Candidate Genes.

Beta coefficients (β), 95% Confidence Intervals, and P-values are from four logistic regression models examining weighted scores for the peak SNP associations in APOE and 9 LOAD candidate genes. Scores are the product of the log-transformed odds ratio for each SNP association multiplied by minor allele dosage from imputed genotype probabilities.
