Hazard Ratios for Univariate Analyses of Baseline and Rate of Change in Cognitive Test Scores in Relation to Onset of Clinical Symptoms
Baseline Test Scores | Time-Dependent Rate of Change in Scores | |||
---|---|---|---|---|

Logical Memory Immediate | 0.59 (0.44-0.80) | 0.0005 | 0.58 (0.36-0.93) | 0.024 |
Logical Memory Delayed | 0.48 (0.36-0.65) | 0.0001 | 0.54 (0.34-0.86) | 0.009 |
Logical Memory % Retention | 0.56 0.44-0.71 | 0.0001 | 0.54 (0.38-0.76) | 0.001 |
Paired Associate Immediate | 0.53 (0.41-0.70) | 0.0001 | 0.37 (0.24-0.57) | 0.001 |
Paired Associate Delayed | 0.63 (0.49-0.82) | 0.0004 | 0.63 (0.43-0.92) | 0.016 |
Rey Figure Recall | 0.62 (0.46-0.82) | 0.0008 | 0.49 (0.38-0.63) | 0.001 |
Block Design Subtest | 0.53 (0.38-0.74) | 0.0001 | 0.40 (0.19-0.83) | 0.014 |
Boston Naming Test | 0.57 (0.43-0.74) | 0.0001 | 0.69 (0.55-0.85) | 0.001 |
Digit Symbol Test | 0.41 (0.29-0.58) | 0.0001 | 0.47 (0.35-0.64) | 0.001 |
The hazard ratios are for standardized scores (adjusted for age at baseline and education), and are presented per one standard deviation increase in each cognitive test.
