The models were adjusted for age, sex, education, smoking, body mass index, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, APOE4, and high-density lipoprotein. Low plasma amylin concentration (<75 pmol/L) was used as the reference.

b

Given as a percentage of total cerebral brain volume.

c

P values adjusted using conventional Bonferroni correction (P < .004).

d

75 pmol/L to less than 2800 pmol/L.

e

2800 pmol/L or greater.
