“Threshold” refers to P-value cut-off used for PGS construction in prior GWAS summary statistics and “Number of SNPs” refers to the LD-pruned SNPs passing this threshold that are included in PGS calculations. “R2” denotes the phenotypic variance explained by the SNPs of the prior GWAS in the EMIF-AD MBD dataset. A full listing of results from these PRS analyses can be found in Supplementary Material.
