Table 8 T-tau and p-tau subgroup comparisons on annual change in CSF t-tau and p-tau values

From: Four subgroups based on tau levels in Alzheimer’s disease observed in two independent cohorts

 

Effect time

 

Interaction subgroup x time

Annual change (se) for each subgroup

p values pairwise comparisons in slope differences between subgroups

Baseline effect tau group

Baseline estimated marginal means (SE) for each subgroup

p values pairwise comparisons in baseline estimates between subgroups

  1. CSF t- and p-tau values are in pg/ml. Baseline effects are reported in the last columns. Bold font highlights significant effects. Slope that differs from 0 is indicated with a when p < .05, b when p < .01 or c when p < .001
  2. SE standard error
