Table 3.
Relation of diabetes status categories (normal glucose tolerance [NGT], pre-diabetes, type 2 diabetes [T2D]), and of glycemia ascertained as hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), with high global brain amyloid level by the median standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR). Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) estimated defined by multinomial logistic regression. ORs report the odds of high vs. low amyloid defined by the median SUVR. Model 1 is unadjusted; Model 2 is adjusted for age, sex, and APOE-ε4; Model 3 is adjusted for lipids, body mass index, and differences in medication. For analyses with diabetes categories, NGT is the reference category.
