Abstract

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have reported numerous associations between risk variants and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, these associations do not necessarily indicate a causal relationship. If the risk variants can be demonstrated to be biologically functional, the possibility of a causal relationship would be increased. In this article, we reviewed all of the published GWASs to extract the genome-wide significant (p
