2. Figure 1
Survival curves displaying the association of biomarker abnormality with progression to AD dementia by age at onset in MCI patients. Patients with normal and abnormal biomarkers are denoted by dashed and solid lines, respectively. + indicates censored cases. HR: unadjusted hazard ratio (95% confidence interval) in Cox regression models. The most predictive individual biomarker is FDG PET, with no difference between earlier and later onset groups. Hippocampal volume is also predictive in both groups, but predictivity is lower. CSF Ab42 is predictive in earlier but not in later onset patients.

3. Figure 2
Receiver operating characteristic curves showing prognostic performance (discrimination of pMCI from siMCI) of biomarkers. Values denote areas under the curve (95% confidence interval). The analysis confirms the findings of Figure 1.

4. Figure 3
Receiver operating characteristic curves showing the prognostic performance of composite mdices computed in logistic models including biomarkers with significant effect (earlier onset: Aβ42, FDGPET, and hippocampal volume; later onset: FDG-PET and hippocampal volume). Biomarkers were included in the model as continuous variables. Values denote areas under the curve (95% confidence interval). The two curves were not significantly different.
