Data are presented in number (%) or mean ± standard deviation, also when not-normally distributed enabling clearer comparison between clusters. p-values are based on t-tests, χ2, or Kruskal Wallis analyses when appropriate. Normalized values are given for education, CSF biomarkers, and MRI characteristics. When MRI characteristics were measured using a visual rating scale in which a higher score reflects more severe atrophy, results were inverted so that higher scores reflect larger volume / less atrophy. Differences between memory and non-memory clusters are shown in bold and indicated as follows: *p ≤ 0.001, †p ≤ 0.01, ‡p ≤ 0.05. Interpretation: The non-memory clusters were younger (pooled sample, UCSF), had shorter duration of complaints (pooled sample), lower MMSE scores (UCSF), were more often APOE e4 negative (pooled sample, UCSF), had lower CSF ptau concentrations (pooled sample), less hippocampal atrophy (pooled sample), but more severe atrophy of the posterior cortex (ADC, pooled sample).

Characteristics of clusters identified in a subset of Data are presented in number (%) or mean ± standard deviation, also when not-normally distributed enabling clearer comparison between clusters. p-values are based on t-tests, χ2, or Kruskal Wallis analyses when appropriate. Differences between memory and non-memory cluster are indicated as follows *p ≤ 0.001, †p ≤ 0.01, ‡p ≤ 0.05. Education is given according to the Verhage scale (1-7 resp. low-high educated[1]). ¶Atrophy of the hippocampus and posterior cortex, and white matter hyperintensities (WMH) are scored using visual rating scales in which higher scores reflect more severe atrophy or WMH [2-4]. Interpretation: Within this CSF AD biomarker confirmed subset, the non-memory cluster was younger, had lower MMSE scores, was less often APOE e4 positive, and had more severe atrophy of the posterior cortex compared with the memory cluster.
SUPPLEMENTARY FIGURES
Supplementary figure 1 Neuropsychological components in mildly demented strata. Memory tests are indicated in dark blue. Abbreviations: ABCD = Arizona Battery for Communication Disorders of Dementia, ADC = Amsterdam Dementia Cohort, ADNI = Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative, BNT = Boston Naming Test, comp questions = comparative questions, CVLT = California Verbal Learning Test, DCN = German Dementia Competence Network, DS = Digit Span, FAB = Frontal Assessment Battery, LDST = Letter Digit Substitution Test, LM = CERAD Logical Memory, mem = memory-impaired, non-mem = memory-spared, NMF = Nonnegative Matrix Factorization, RAVLT = Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test, TMT = Trail Making Test, UCSF = University of California – San Francisco, VAT = Visual Association Test, WL = CERAD Word List. In all cohorts, the optimal number of test clusters was two. In this figure, each row represents one neuropsychological test. The two columns represent the two found neuropsychological components. The warmer the colour, the higher the test loads to the component when test scores are high (relatively spared cognition); the colder the colour (darker blue), the lower the test loads to the component when test scores are high (relatively impaired cognition). Interpretation: In each cohort, one component is associated with relative impairment of memory tests, therefore called the memory component. The other component is associated with relative impairment of non-memory functions, therefore called the non-memory component.
Supplementary figure 2 Cognitive clusters in mildly demented strata. Abbreviations: ADC = Amsterdam Dementia Cohort, ADNI = Alzheimer’s disease Neuroimaging Initiative, DCN = German Dementia Competence Network, UCSF = University of California – San Francisco. Patients were assigned to either the memory or non-memory cluster based on the fit of their neuropsychological profile to the memory or
non-memory component (supplementary figure 1). Each column represents one patient. The warmer the colour, the better the fit of patients’ neuropsychological profile to the neuropsychological profile of that
component (rows).
