Patients were stratified by their tau to Aβ42 ratio: those with a ratio of > 1 considered as having likely AD pathology, i.e. an atypical form of AD (‘AD biomarker’ group [n = 18]), and < 1 as likely FTD pathology (‘FTD biomarker’ group [n = 48]). This evidence concerns the gene MAPT and Alzheimer disease.
