  1. β estimate (BETA), standard error (SE), and P (P value) for each APOE genotype compared to the APOE2/3, 3/3, and 4/4 genotype as a reference (Ref.) were calculated under a linear regression model; NA: not applicable. β estimates reflect the impact of each APOE genotype on Braak (tau tangle) stage after adjustment for CERAD (neuritic Aβ plaque) score.
