Only the most recent report from each research group was used to avoid subjects being reported multiples times. When only graphical data were published without mean ± SD, these values were derived from the graph. If specific assignment of PiB-positivity was not made in the report, visual interpretation of graphic data using 1.5 SUVR or an equivalent measure in other units was performed.
