  1. Significant statistical tests (ANOVA or ANCOVA, or between group comparisons after correction for multiple testing) are indicated in bold
  2. A±, CSF positive or negative for amyloid plaques; T±, CSF positive or negative for tau-tangles; N±, CSF positive or negative marker for neurodegeneration; b, unstandardized regression coefficient; SE, standard error; p, p value; p.adj, Bonferroni–Holm adjusted p value. No significant between-group differences in slopes over time (Bonferroni–Holm) as compared with the reference group (stable A−/T−/N−) were found for any biomarker
