In pathology-specific analyses, intermediate to high Thal amyloid phases were best detected by CSF Aβ1-42 (AUC [95% confidence interval] 0.91 [0.81–1]), while intermediate to high scores for Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease neuritic plaques and Braak tau stages were best detected by CSF p-tau181 (AUC 0.89 [0.79–0.99] and 0.88 [0.77–0.99], respectively).
