Proposed Analysis: We plan to apply causal inference models (e.g., bayesian MR, network analysis) to explore the causal mechanism underlying dementia. 1. We plan to use the virus infection data in UKB as the exposure data and AD/dementia data in ADNI as the outcome data. Applying causal inference models to explore if there are causal effects from virus to dementia. 2.We plan to make improvements on inference models if no evidence detected.
