Subj: Subject ID, MMSE: Mini-mental State Exam score, SML: subjective memory loss, Dx: Diagnosis, SPM: Consistent with possible MCI/AD based on inspection of SPM statistical map, PET: Consistent with possible MCI/AD based on inspection of PET scan. There were two PET scans obtained for each patient. One at study initiation and one at the end of the three year study. These are represented by the “1’’ and “2’’ subscripts for SPM and PET, respectively. NP testing was done at five timepoints during the three year study, and results for these five examinations are shown in the columns on the right (1 through 5). NP testing: (blank): normal, a: amnestic, n: nonamnestic, (−): no data. |
