#

N represent the total number of subjects with measurements of any of the pathological traits listed in the table.

*

represent the mean and standard deviation of each trait in subgroups of subjects carrying or not carrying APOE4 allele and the P values of their differences using t test.

$

represent the count and percentage of each trait in subgroups of subjects carrying or not carrying APOE4 allele and the P values of their differences using chi-square test.

Abbreviations: pTAU, abnormally phosphorylated Tau protein, AT8.
