Fig. 2: The association between baseline biomarker levels and hazard ratios for all-cause dementia with 95% confidence intervals, in the dementia-free analytical sample.
From: Blood-based biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease and incident dementia in the community
Hazard ratios (HRs) are derived from Cox regression survival models. Models are adjusted for age; sex; education; disease status, including ischemic heart disease, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, cerebrovascular diseases, chronic kidney diseases, obesity, anaemia, and hypertension; and APOE genotype. Shaded green areas, the distribution of the biomarker levels in the entire population; spikes, incident dementia cases; black line, HR; gray shaded areas, confidence intervals; red line, the reference (HR = 1).
