2.7.2 WMHVR + DBP age 70–73 (standing) 315
3.1 WMHVR + FHS-CVS age 36 286
3.2 WMHVR + FHS-CVS age 53 309
3.3 WMHVR + FHS-CVS age 69 312
4 WMHVR + APOE-ε4 status 316
5 WMHVR + baseline (phase 1) Aβ CL score 311

Abbreviations: Aβ = β-amyloid; CL = Centiloid; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; FHS-CVS = Framingham Heart Study Cardiovascular Risk Score; HAR = hippocampal atrophy rate; NfL = neurofilament light chain; SBP = systolic blood pressure; TIV = total intracranial volume; WB BSI = whole-brain boundary shift integral; WMHV = white matter hyperintensity volume; WMHVR = WMHV change rate.

Covariates sex, age, and TIV were included in all models, and all models had HAR as the dependent variable. All independent variables and covariates were included as an interaction term with scan interval. Huber and White robust standard errors were used in all models. The same variables were further accounted for in semipartial R2 analysis, again in separate models.
