  1. Values reported as mean ± standard deviation
  2. aMoCA Montreal Cognitive Assessment, with one missed test; Age and education z scores for all tests except MoCA; global performance was expressed by an aggregate z score by first averaging standardized scores within four cognitive domains and then taking the mean of these four values; the language domain scores were not included in this z score due to the distributions of the normative data
