Statistically significant differences between the SD, PNFA, LPA and control groups are represented by superscript letters: ap < 0.05 disease group significantly worse than controls, bp < 0.05 SD worse than PNFA, cp < 0.05 SD worse than LPA, dp < 0.05 PNFA worse than SD, ep < 0.05 LPA worse than SD, fp < 0.05 LPA worse than PNFA. For the LPA subgroups of GRN only and AD only a superscript lettera represents p < 0.05 disease group significantly worse than controls.
