    • A genetic risk score from 21 non-APOE late-onset Alzheimer's disease risk variants predicts mortality. • The genetic risk score likely confers risk for mortality through its effect on dementia incidence. • Late-onset Alzheimer's disease risk loci effect estimates from genome-wide association unlikely suffer from selection bias.
