Characteristics of HC and AD/MCI subjects

Characteristic HC (n = 276) AD/MCI (n = 387) (nAD = 119; nMCI = 268)
Age, mean (SD) 73 (6) 73 (7)
Baseline MMSE, mean (SD) 29 (1) 26 (3)
No. (%) APOEε4 carriers 82 (30) 266 (69)
No. (%) male 128 (46) 215 (56)
No. with CSF Aβ42 data (baseline, 24 months, 48 months) 242, 126, 37 357, 137, 40
No. with CSF p-tau data; baseline, 24 months, 48 months 242, 126, 37 357, 137, 40
No. with 18F-AV-45 PET data; baseline, 24 months, 48 months) 271, 207, 129 387, 195, 86
No. amyloid positive/no. amyloid negative at baseline* 100/171 387
  • AD/MCI subjects were PET-confirmed to be above the amyloid positivity cutoff.

  • ↵*271 of 276 HC subjects had baseline amyloid PET scans, 100 of whom were amyloid-positive.
