= 0.205; p = 0.651); and between typical (21%) and atypical (11%) subgroups (Fisher's test, p = 0.184). However, in DV+ patients, symptom onset occurred 8.0 years earlier than in DV- patients (95% CI [-14, -3.0]; p = 0.005), with a median onset age of 58 years (IQR: 15). A DV could favor early-onset AD/FTD, but may not affect susceptibility to typical and atypical variants of AD/FTD. The underlying neurophysiological processes involved require future investigation, with implications for precision medicine and individualized treatment strategies.

Key findings
- = 0.205; p = 0.651); and between typical (21%) and atypical (11%) subgroups (Fisher's test, p = 0.184).
- However, in DV+ patients, symptom onset occurred 8.0 years earlier than in DV- patients (95% CI [-14, -3.0]; p = 0.005), with a median onset age of 58 years (IQR: 15).
- A DV could favor early-onset AD/FTD, but may not affect susceptibility to typical and atypical variants of AD/FTD.
- The underlying neurophysiological processes involved require future investigation, with implications for precision medicine and individualized treatment strategies.

Why it matters
This study found that a developmental variant could favor early-onset AD/FTD, with symptom onset occurring 8.0 years earlier, but it may not affect susceptibility to typical and atypical variants. The underlying processes require future investigation, so no treatment or prevention is available.
