Figure 2. Survival curves based on Cox analyses comparing Alzheimer disease mortality in subjects belonging to each Mediterranean diet (MeDi) tertile (p for trend = 0.004).

Figure 2

Low tertile (score 0 to 3) corresponds to lower adherence to MeDi, middle tertile (score 4 to 5) to middle adherence, and high tertile (score 6 to 9) to higher adherence to MeDi. The figure is derived from a model that is adjusted for period of recruitment, age, gender, ethnicity, education, APOE genotype, caloric intake, smoking, and body mass index.
