1BH-FDR adjustment was applied to account for multiple testing for each aging marker across all the cognitive function tests.

2Multiple linear regression models adjusting for age, sex, race, study fields, and education. Beta coefficients indicate changes in cognitive function score by one year greater in GrimAA.
