Popis: We aimed to define a Mayo Preclinical Alzheimer's disease Cognitive Composite (Mayo-PACC) that prioritizes parsimony and use of public domain measures to facilitate clinical translation.Cognitively unimpaired participants aged 65 to 85 at baseline with amyloid PET imaging were included, yielding 428 amyloid negative (A-) and 186 amyloid positive (A+) individuals with 7 years mean follow-up. Sensitivity to amyloid-related cognitive decline was examined using slope estimates derived from linear mixed models (difference in annualized change across A+ and A- groups). We compared differences in rates of change between Mayo-PACC and other composites (A+ A- indicating more significant decline in A+).All composites showed sensitivity to amyloid-related longitudinal cognitive decline (A+ A- annualized change p 0.05). Comparisons revealed that Mayo-PACC (AVLT sum of trials 1-5+6+delay, Trails B, animal fluency) showed comparable longitudinal sensitivity to other composites.Mayo-PACC performs similarly to other composites and can be directly translated to the clinic.
