Regression analyses estimating varying intraclass correlations (ICCs) with clustered twin data were adapted from code in Archer et al.32 using mixor. MZ, monozygotic twin; DZ, dizygotic twin; LastAge, age at last follow-up, death or dementia onset, centred on age 80 years and divided by 10; Array, Human OmniExpress=0, Illumina PsychArray=1; PRS, polygenic risk score at P < 1 × 10−5 residualized for four PCs and standardized within array type; PRS.no.APOE, PRS without APOE region; Random, random effect; Deviance, –2ln(Likelihood); AIC, Akaike Information Criteria; SBC, Schwarz Bayesian Criterion; ICCs measured as Random·MZ/(1+Random·MZ) and Random·DZ/(1+Random·DZ)32; AUC, area under the curve.
