Age centered at 70 years, male gender and education centered at 12 years was included in all models. Hippocampus and brain volume expressed as %TCV centered to non-impaired mean volume, WMH volume expressed as log WMH %TCV centered to non-impaired mean volume. PiB Index centered to non-impaired mean DVR. p values: <0.0005***, <0.005**, <0.05*. TCV, total cranial volume; WMH, white matter hyperintensities; PiB, Pittsburg Imaging Compound B.
