  1. β-amyloid, p-tau phosphorylated tau, t-tau total tau, MMSE Mini Mental State Examination, MCI-o mild cognitive impairment not due to Alzheimer’s disease, young control subjects without dementia, non-AD-D dementia not due to Alzheimer’s disease, MCI-AD mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer’s disease, AD-D Alzheimer’s disease dementia
  2. The values represent the median [interquartile range]
  3. Differences between the groups were calculated using a nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s posttest. No p values were calculated for Aβ, t-tau, and p-tau, as the patients were selected according to these markers
  4. a p < 0.05 vs. non-AD-D
  5. b p < 0.001 vs. MCI-o
  6. c p < 0.01 vs. non-AD-D
