Sex‐stratified genome‐wide meta‐analysis identifies novel loci for cognitive decline in older adults
In this sex-stratified analysis of cognitive decline, we identified two novel loci affecting cognition. Our study illustrates that sex-aware genetic studies can help in the identification of novel genetic loci and enhance sex-specific understanding of cognitive aging.
