Relation of microinfarcts to global cognition and five cognitive systems*
Cognitive Outcome | Estimate (SE), p value |
---|---|
Global cognition | −0.287 (0.113), 0.012 |
Episodic memory | −0.279 (0.138), 0.044 |
Semantic memory | −0.391 (0.130), 0.003 |
Working memory | −0.146 (0.099), 0.139 |
Perceptual speed | −0.400 (0.117), <0.001 |
Visuospatial abilities | −0.153 (0.098), 0.119 |
Each model adjusted for age-at-death, sex, education, macroscopcic infarcts, AD pathology and Lewy bodies.
