NC, cognitively normal controls; SCD, subjective cognitive decline; MCI, mild cognitive impairment; AD, Alzheimer’s disease; 18F-florbetapir PET, 18F-florbetapir positron emission tomography; SUVR, standard uptake value ratios. P-values were adjusted for age, sex, and education years with general linear models. The bold values represented the values with statistical significance.
