aNote that these data may be confounded by technical pre-processing issues.

bDefined on the baseline data with a validated cutoff of 0.6.

cFor the glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutation subgroup, a 15% sample cutoff was prespecified because very few participants were expected to carry the mutation.

DaT-SPECT, dopamine transporter-single-photon emission computed tomography; IHC, immunohistochemistry; MAO-B, monoamine oxidase-B; MoCA, Montreal Cognitive Assessment; PIGD, postural instability gait dysfunction; RBDSQ, Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder Screening Questionnaire; SBR, striatal binding ratio.
