Polygenic Risk Scores for Amyloidosis as Predictors of Early changes in Alzheimer's Disease Endophenotypes [PDF]
Abstract Background Early identification of individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD) is critical for effective intervention. Amyloid deposition, a hallmark of AD pathology, offers insights into genetic factors driving disease progression. While the APOE genotype is a major contributor, the role of other risk variants in amyloid deposition and ...

Polygenic scores of Core 1 Alzheimer's disease biomarkers predict early cognitive and pathological change. [PDF]
Abstract INTRODUCTION Core 1 biomarkers, such as amyloid positron emission tomography, capture the earliest biological changes leading to Alzheimer's disease (AD). While APOE is a major genetic factor, the contribution of other variants to Core 1 biomarkers remains unclear.

GAUDI: interpretable multi-omics integration with UMAP embeddings and density-based clustering [PDF]
Integrating high-dimensional cellular multi-omics data is crucial for understanding various layers of biological control. Single ‘omic methods provide important insights, but often fall short in handling the complex relationships between genes, proteins,

Improving polygenic risk prediction in admixed populations by explicitly modeling ancestral-differential effects via GAUDI [PDF]
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) have shown successes in clinics, but most PRS methods focus only on participants with distinct primary continental ancestry without accommodating recently-admixed individuals with mosaic continental ancestry backgrounds for ...

The German Auditory and Image (GAudI) vocabulary test: A new German receptive vocabulary test and its relationships to other tests measuring linguistic experience. [PDF]
Humans acquire word knowledge through producing and comprehending spoken and written language. Word learning continues into adulthood and knowledge accumulates across the lifespan. Therefore, receptive vocabulary size is often conceived of as a proxy for

Temporoparietal Scalp Intravenous Schwannoma: Rare Subcutaneous Soft Tissue Mass in an Unusual Location [PDF]
Schwannomas, or neurilemmomas, are benign nerve sheath tumors of Schwann cell origin, sometimes associated with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) and schwannomatosis. Intravenous schwannomas are exceedingly rare, pose diagnostic challenges due to their unusual location within blood vessels and lack of surrounding perineurium.

Topology optimization considering self‐weight
Abstract In civil engineering self‐weight loading usually represents the preponderant load case and shall therefore be considered in structural optimization. The present study investigates numerical topology optimization of structural stiffness with a bound on disposable amount of material. A customized topology optimization routine based on Sequential
