Interaction between menopausal stage, ACE group, and IL-1β on immediate verbal recall performance. Significant interaction between menopause stage, ACE group, and IL-1β on immediate recall performance (p = 0.026). During premenopause, there was a trend level difference in slopes between ACE groups (p = 0.089) such that higher levels of in the high ACE group were associated with increased cognitive performance. During perimenopause, there was a tend level difference in slopes between ACE groups (p = 0.061) such that higher levels of IL-1β in the high ACE group were associated with decreased performance. No significant difference in slopes between ACE groups during postmenopause (p = 0.591).
