Odds ratios for mild cognitive deficits dependent on medial temporal lobe atrophy and white matter hyperintensities
| Data are presented as odds ratios and their 95% confidence intervals (CI). Adjusted odds ratios are corrected for age, sex, education, and presence of stroke and/or lacunes. | |||||

| Good cognitive function (n) | 302 | 56 | 82 | 46 | |
| Mild cognitive deficits (n) | 40 | 14 | 16 | 25 | |
| Crude odds ratio (95% CI) | 1.0 (reference) | 1.9 (1.0 to 3.7) | 1.5 (0.8 to 2.8) | 4.1 (2.3 to 7.4) | |
