Plasma sEPCR (ng/ml) | −1.26 (−2.90–0.38). n = 120 | 0.13 | −0.65 (−1.48–0.18), n = 120 | 0.12 | −0.82 (−1.83–0.18), n = 123 | 0.11 |
CSF sEPCR (ng/ml) | −0.45 (−3.18–2.28), n = 47 | 0.74 | −0.33 (−0.99–0.33), n = 47 | 0.31 | 1.09 (−0.24–2.41), n = 47 | 0.11 |
All models were adjusted for age. Plasma and CSF sEPCR log transformed (log 10).
