Table 2. CSF biomarker cutoff values that best discriminate ADD from NC.
| CSF biomarker | Cutoff | AUC | Sensitivity, % | Specificity, % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aβ42, pg/mL | 667.9 | 0.960 | 97 | 88 |
| T-tau, pg/mL | 355.3 | 0.918 | 73 | 96 |
| P-tau, pg/mL | 61.8 | 0.684a,b | 59 | 82 |
| T-tau/Aβ42 | 0.641 | 0.994b,c | 97 | 98 |
| P-tau/Aβ42 | 0.103 | 0.963b,c,d | 92 | 94 |
CSF = cerebrospinal fluid, ADD = Alzheimer's disease dementia, NC = normal control, AUC = area under curve, Aβ42 = beta amyloid 1-42, T-tau = total tau, P-tau = phosphorylated tau.
aP <0.05 compared to AUC of the model for Aβ42; bP <0.05 compared to AUC of the model for T-tau; cP <0.05 compared to AUC of the model for P-tau; dP <0.05 compared to AUC of the model for T-tau/Aβ42.
