(p 0 0001), whereas, after adjustment for age and sex, episodic memory and executive function did not. Baseline hippocampal atrophy was associated with increasing atrophy rates (hippocampal volume: p 0 025; MTA-score: p 0 008), in contrast whole brain volume, WMH and lacunes, adjusted for age and sex, were not significantly associated with hippocampal atrophy rates. Conclusions: In MCI, older age, poorer general cognition, hippocampal atrophy and APOE e4 predict subsequent accelerated rates of hippocampal atrophy, suggestive of the accumulation of Alzheimer-type pathology, which may become clinically manifest in the future. These markers may improve identification of MCI subjects at risk for AD.
