TABLE 4:

The strongest models for predicting each objective cognitive measure (MMSE, ADAS_Cog, ADNI-EF, ADNI-MEM) and each ECog domain (Memory, Language, Visuospatial, Planning, Organization, Divided Attention).

All CN subjects Aβ-negative CN subjects
Outcome Best model Adjusted R2 Best model Adjusted R2
Objective Cognitive Measures
MMSE Aβ(temp*, par*), Age* 0.34 Age*, Aβ(front) 0.14
ADAS-Cog Aβ(par*), Age* 0.29 Age*, Aβ(temp) 0.18
ADNI-EF Aβ(front*), Age* 0.18 Age*, APOE-Ɛ4, Tau(Braak III-IV), Aβ(par, temp, cing*, front*) 0.31
ADNI-MEM Aβ(front*), Age*, Tau(Braak III-IV, Braak V-VI) 0.19 Aβ(front*, cing*), Sex, Age, Tau(Braak III-IV) 0.20
Subjective Cognitive Measures
Everyday Memory Aβ (par*), Age, Sex 0.17 Aβ (cing), Age, APOE-Ɛ4 0.11
Everyday Language Age, Sex, Aβ (par) 0.09 None
Everyday Visuospatial Age-, Tau(Braak I*, Braak III-IV*, Braak V-VI) 0.11 Age, Tau (Braak I*) 0.07
Everyday Planning Age*, Tau(Braak I*, Braak III-IV*, Braak V-VI*) 0.19 Age-, Tau (Braak I*), APOE-Ɛ4 0.18
Everyday Organization Aβ(par*) 0.10 Tau (Braak III-IV*, Braak V-VI), Aβ (cing*, temp*), APOE-Ɛ4 0.28
Everyday Divided Attention Age-, APOE-Ɛ4 * 0.08 Tau(Braak III-IV*, Braak V-VI*), Sex 0.16

Blue Cells are models that included only Aβ with p<0.05.

Green cells are models that included only tau (p<0.05).

Red color present models that included both pathologies.
