β represents difference in adjusted means; SE = standard error; AD = Alzheimer’s disease; NFT = neurofibrillary tangles; APOE = apolipoprotein E

All models are adjusted for age; sex; time between midlife vascular risk assessment and death; and obesity, systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol, and smoking status at midlife
