PD percentile difference

aEstimates were obtained by fitting a Laplace regression on the 25th, 50th, and the 75th percentiles of age at death adjusted for age at baseline

bThe model was further adjusted for sex, body mass index, smoking status, alcohol consumption, educational level, physical activity and major diseases
