*Separate models were constructed for each class’ probability of multiple diagnostic outcomes. All models are adjusted for education, race, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, stroke or transient ischemic attack, and follow-up time (baseline age and sex were included in latent profile analysis).

Outcomes amnestic MCI multiple domain, non-amnestic MCI single and multiple domain were combined due to small numbers.
