The risk score for AD patients is defined according to the following equation, where relative lncRNA expression is noted with the relevant gene symbol: risk score (AD) = 0.3292 × AC245595.1 − 0.7741 × LINC00996 + 0.2592 × VIM − AS1 + 0.1354 × SFTA1P + 0.4720 × MSC − AS1 + 0.5041 * TMPO − AS1 + 0.4536 × ABALON + 0.36102 × AL606489.1 − 0.5293 × AC025048.4 + 0.5714 × LINC01138 − 0.2651 × IPO5P1 − 0.3861 × AC008763.1 − 0.3246 × AC026355.1 − 0.5747 × AC123595.1. The gene discussed is VIM; the disease is Alzheimer disease.
