The Association Between Cognition and Histamine-2 Receptor Antagonists in African Americans: H2 ANTAGONIST-COGNITION Open
To evaluate the association between histamine-2 receptor antagonist (H2A) exposure and incident cognitive impairment in a community-based sample of African Americans.

Novel Alzheimer Disease Risk Loci and Pathways in African American Individuals Using the African Genome Resources Panel Open
While the major pathways involved in Alzheimer disease etiology in African American individuals are similar to those in non-Hispanic White individuals, the disease-associated loci within these pathways differ.

Transethnic genome‐wide scan identifies novel Alzheimer's disease loci Open
Introduction Genetic loci for Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been identified in whites of European ancestry, but the genetic architecture of AD among other populations is less understood. Methods We conducted a transethnic genome‐wide assoc…

Genetic architecture of age-related cognitive decline in African Americans Open
The genetic architecture of aging-related cognitive in AA individuals is largely similar to that of individuals of European descent. In both populations, we note a surprising lack of enrichment for immune pathways in the genetic risk for c…

Genetic Influences on Plasma Homocysteine Levels in African Americans and Yoruba Nigerians Open
Plasma homocysteine, a metabolite involved in key cellular methylation processes seems to be implicated in cognitive functions and cardiovascular health with its high levels representing a potential modifiable risk factor for Alzheimer’s d…

Association of Long Runs of Homozygosity With Alzheimer Disease Among African American Individuals Open
To our knowledge, we discovered the first evidence of increased burden of ROHs among patients with AD from an outbred African American population, which could reflect either the cumulative effect of multiple ROHs to AD or the contribution …

Statin Use, Incident Dementia and Alzheimer Disease in Elderly African Americans Open
Objective: To investigate the association between statin use, incident dementia, and Alzheimer disease (AD) in a prospective elderly African American cohort.Design: Two stage design with a screening interview followed by a comprehensive in…

Dementia incidence declined in African‐Americans but not in Yoruba Open
Introduction To compare dementia incidence of African‐American and Yoruba cohorts aged ≥70 years enrolled in 1992 and 2001. Methods African‐Americans residing in Indianapolis and Yoruba in Ibadan, Nigeria without dementia were enrolled in …

Global and local ancestry in African‐Americans: Implications for Alzheimer's disease risk Open
Introduction African‐American (AA) individuals have a higher risk for late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) than Americans of primarily European ancestry (EA). Recently, the largest genome‐wide association study in AAs to date confirmed th…
