T-tau and p-tau subgroup comparisons on annual change in CSF t-tau and p-tau values

Effect time Interaction subgroup x time Annual change (se) for each subgroup p values pairwise comparisons in slope differences between subgroups Baseline effect tau group Baseline estimated marginal means (SE) for each subgroup p values pairwise comparisons in baseline estimates between subgroups

CSF t- and p-tau values are in pg/ml. Baseline effects are reported in the last columns. Bold font highlights significant effects. Slope that differs from 0 is indicated with a when p < .05, b when p < .01 or c when p < .001
