Plasma P‐Tau181 cut point predicts rate of change in cognitive testing, time to functional decline, and time to dementia onset in mild cognitive impairment in the Alzheimer's disease neuroimaging initiative cohort. (A) Effect of p‐tau181 cut point on longitudinal Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) performance, assessed with linear mixed effects models adjusting for age, sex, and baseline MMSE. Coefficient (β) and p‐values for p‐tau181 cut point*time interaction shown, with time in years. (B) Effect of p‐tau181 cut point on time to a clinically significant decline in the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale Sum of Boxes, (CDR‐SB), equivalent to an increase by 1.5 points or more from baseline, assessed with Cox proportional hazards model. (C) Effect of p‐tau181 cut point on time to conversion to Dementia, assessed with Cox proportional hazards model. Groups are defined as above (red) or below (blue) the p‐tau181 cut point of 3.44 pg/mL.
