a, Genetic correlation analysis. Genetic correlation was estimated with LDSC between each pair of neurodegenerative diseases (ALS, AD, CBD, PD, PSP and FTD). Correlations marked with an asterisk reached nominal statistical significance (PALS,AD = 0.01, PALS,PD = 0.01, PALS,PSP = 0.0001, PPSP,PD = 0.002). b, SNP associations of ALS lead SNPs or LD proxies in neurodegenerative diseases. The association with ALS is shown at the top. Effective sample size is shown on the left. Posterior probabilities of the same causal SNP affecting two diseases were estimated through colocalization analysis and are highlighted as connections.
