Table 3.

Frequency of spatial patterns (R = random distribution, reg = regular or uniform distribution, reg clusters = regularly distributed clusters of inclusions) of the tau-immunoreactive neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and neuritic plaques (NP) in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus in seven cases of Alzheimer’s disease neuropathologic change (ADNC) without CTE

Pathology	Region	R	Reg	Reg clusters	Large clusters
NFT	Cortex	1	0	22 (12)	7
	Sub/HC/DG	3	0	9 (0)	1
NP	Cortex	1	1	12 (8)	12
	Sub/HC/DG	3	1	11 (0)	5

Figures in parentheses in column 5 indicate percentage of regions investigated in which cluster size was in the range 400–800 µm

Chi-square (χ2) contingency tests: CTE vs ADNC NFT χ2 = 19.29 (3DF, P > 0.001) and NP χ2 = 9.80 (3DF, P < 0.05)
