IntroductionGenetic susceptibility is a primary factor contributing to etiology of late-onset Alzheimers disease (LOAD). The exact mechanisms and timeline through which APOE/PICALM influence brain functions and contribute to LOAD remain unidentified. This includes their effects on individuals prior to the development of the disease. MethodsAPOE/PICALM alleles were assessed to determine the genetic risk of LOAD in 79 healthy, middle-aged participants who underwent EEG and fMRI recordings. The resting-state signal was analyzed to estimate relative spectral power, complexity (Higuchis algorithm), and connectivity (coherence in EEG and ICA-based connectivity in fMRI). ResultsThe main findings indicated that individuals at risk for LOAD exhibited reduced signal complexity and the so-called "slowing of EEG" which are well-known EEG markers of AD. Additionally, these individuals showed altered functional connectivity in fMRI (within attention related areas). DiscussionRisk alleles of APOE/PICALM may affect brain integrity and function prior to the onset of the disease

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
