Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
- Area under the curve (AUC) of a Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve for the ability of beta amyloid oligomers to differentiate subjects with AD from control subjects and subjects with other types of dementia. - AUC of a ROC curve for the ability of beta amyloid oligomers to differentiate subjects with MCI who progressed to AD at follow-up from those who will remain stable. - AUC of ROC curves to investigate the difference in diagnostic accuracy for AD of beta amyloid oligomers compared to other biomarkers of AD. - Differences in oligomer levels according to genotype. - Change over time of oligomer levels in control subjects, subjects with MCI, and subjects with AD. Additional outcome for amendment: - Difference in gene expression profiles between subjects with high and low beta amyloid oligomer levels.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- Correlation between cognitive markers and levels of beta amyloid oligomers cross-sectionally and over time.
