Notes: Age for the UCSF cohort was defined as age at the first visit. Age for Quest cohort is age when testing was performed.
Sex was unavailable for five patients in the commercial clinical laboratory cohort. in the GRN mutations in the UCSF cohort, 85% (n=17) of patients had autosomal dominant family history of dementia (at least one first-degree relative), 10% (n=2) had family history unknown, and 5% (n=1) were negative for a family history of dementia. in patients with pathogenic mutations in MAPT in the UCSF cohort, 88% (n=8) had an autosomal dominant family history of dementia (at least one first-degree relative) and 12% (n=1) had a negative family history. in patients with pathogenic C9orf72 expansions in the UCSF cohort, 51% (n=25) had an autosomal dominant family history of dementia (at least one first-degree relative), 33% (n=16) had a negative family history, and 14% (n=7) had an unknown family history. Family history data were not available for the commercial laboratory cohort.
