Re: Daveludlow #2080
It seems like there is a gray area in the reports of the various tests being reported in the news lately. And please anyone feel free to correct me,
Some references are reading accuracy between predicting cognitively normal vs not-cognitively normal in the near future. Other “accuracy” numbers are specifically attached to the prediction ALZ rather than just some cognitive condition.
I believe Georgetown #’s were just “some cognitive condition" in the near future..... that could include ALZ

I believe King’s College test was specific to ALZ, but only at 87%

Lastly,I believe that the only data specific to the prediction of ALZ we have from Lympro is the 90% accuracy.
Per blog-Of note, when we compared only the Alzheimer’s and cognitively intact groups, we had an accuracy of 90% in this small data set. In the upcoming Bridging Study, we will be comparing only Alzheimer’s and cognitively intact controls in order to give us a true clean measure of Version 1 vs. Version 2 using analytically strong data from BD -
I think that this is the true data set all are anticipating and frankly the one that really matters.
