Connecting genomic and proteomic signatures of amyloid burden in the brain.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) has a high heritable component characteristic of complex diseases, yet many of the genetic risk factors remain unknown. We combined genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on amyloid endophenotypes measured in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and positron emission tomography (PET) as surrogates of amyloid pathology, which may be helpful to understand the underlying biology of the disease. Methods: We performed a meta-analysis of GWAS of CSF Aβ42 and PET measures combining six independent cohorts (n=2,076). Due to the opposite effect direction of Aβ phenotypes in CSF and PET measures, only genetic signals in the opposite direction were considered for analysis (n=376,599). Polygenic risk scores (PRS) were calculated and evaluated for AD status and amyloid endophenotypes. We then searched the CSF proteome signature of brain amyloidosis using SOMAscan proteomic data (Ace cohort, n=1,008) and connected it with GWAS results of Results: After filtering the meta-GWAS, we observed genome-wide significance in the rs429358- Conclusions: The strategy of combining CSF and PET amyloid endophenotypes GWAS with CSF proteome analyses might be effective for identifying signals associated with the AD pathological process and elucidate causative molecular mechanisms behind the amyloid mobilization in AD.
