Odds ratios for associations between genetically predicted higher educational attainment, intelligence, and lifestyle and dietary factors and Alzheimer’s disease. Estimates are per year of education completed, 1 unit higher log odds of college/university completion, 1 SD higher intelligence, 10 cigarettes/day, drink of alcohol/week, cup of coffee/day, 20% increase of 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentration, and 1 SD serum folate, serum vitamin B12, and total homocysteine. *Excludes one outlying genetic variant (rs1051730) in or near neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor genes (CHRNA3, CHRNA5, and CHRNB4). SNPs=single nucleotide polymorphisms
