Results from the multiple linear regression models of the effects of CSF markers on cognition in the PD patients. In step 1 only the CSF markers were included as predictors vs composite cognition and the cognitive domains as dependent variables. In step 2 potential confounding variables were added. Only patients without missing values were included in the analyses, n = 403 (5 excluded to due to extreme α-synuclein values, two due to missing p-tau, 4 due to missing t-tau results.). The reported beta-values are standardized.
