Note. TMT-A = Trail Making Test Part A, TMT-B = Trail Making Test Part B, SDMT = Symbol Digit Modalities Test. For the R2, the following key denotes the significance of the final step within the regression model:

***

p<0.001,

**

p<0.01,

*

p<0.05.

a

Standard error of the estimate,

b

Constant,

c

Unstandardized beta weights for other variables in the equation. Age is years old at baseline visit. To calculate the Predicted One Year score, use the following formula: (Constant value for the cognitive variable) + (Other variables in equation as noted in the Table).
