Abstract

Bubble charts displaying significant correlations between age, mitochondrial DNA copy number and (A) CERAD recall score [observed range 2–19, higher indicating better cognitive function] (Pearson’s corr. = 0.464, p-value = 0.001); (B) fatty acid binding protein levels (Pearson’s corr. = -0.363, p-value = 0.007) (indicated as size of bubble). Age and mtDNACN have a significant negative correlation (Pearson’s corr. = -0.288, p-value = 0.035).</p
