  1. Using the UK Biobank (UKBB) dataset and Cox proportional hazards regression, 10 SNPs related to AD and inflammation were chosen, and their relationships and interactive effects with continuous CRP levels for AD risk were examined. Raw P values are shown.
  2. AD Alzheimer’s disease, CRP C-reactive protein, HR hazard ratio, Chr chromosome, Pos position, MAF minor allele frequency.
  3. aLogistic regression for the relationship between SNP dosage alone and AD without including CRP.
  4. bCox proportional hazards regression models for the interaction: SNP dosage CRP level after adjusting for age, sex, years of education, APOE ε4 status and PCs. Raw P values are shown.
  5. cRaw P values.
  6. Bold value indicates P < 0.05.
