  1. Column headers denote the brain regions where specimens for WGS were sampled. Reported pathology burdens were obtained by considering multiple regions (see methods) and are not specific to the brain region selected for WGS. Mean and standard deviation are shown for continuous variables. Absolute frequency and percentage are shown for categorical variables
