Association of Neuropathologic Markers with Rate of Hospitalization
| Neuropathologic Marker | Estimatea | SE | p |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amyloid burden | 0.21 | 0.35 | 0.54 |
| Tau tangle density | −1.30 | 0.57 | 0.024 |
| OR b | 95% CI | ||
| Gross infarcts | 1.08 | 0.79–1.47) | |
| Microinfarcts | 1.12 | 0.81–1.54) | |
| Neocortical Lewy bodies | 0.86 | 0.52–1.40) | |
| Hippocampal sclerosis | 0.57 | 0.27–1.22) | |
| TDP‐43 | 0.80 | 0.56–1.14) | |
a
Estimated from separate linear regression models for each neuropathologic marker, adjusted for age at death, sex, and education.
b
Estimated from separate logistic regression models for each neuropathologic marker, adjusted for age at death, sex, and education.
CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio; SE = standard error; TDP‐43 = transactive response DNA binding protein 43 kDa.
