  1. Estimates and standard error values were expressed by multiplying by 102
  2. The multivariable regression analysis included all covariates that were significant in the univariable analyses: CHIPSt, age, female, education, diabetes mellitus, smoking, previous history of stroke, periventricular WMH, cerebral microbleeds
  3. Standardized beta estimates
  4. Abbreviations: CHIPSt, Cholinergic Pathways Hyperintensities Scale tertile; CAD, Coronary artery disease; MMSE, mini-mental state examination; WMH, white matter hyperintensities; EPVS, enlarged perivascular space; BG, basal ganglia; CS, centrum semiovale; SVD, small vessel disease; SE, Standard error; BF, basal forebrain; NA, not applicable
