Study design and analysis pipeline. Clinical assessments are collected at regular intervals throughout the Minder study (a), features used for statistical analysis and predictive modelling included clinical assessment scores, participant demographics, and comorbidities (b), participants were first grouped based on their relative cognitive and functional decline trajectories and profiled accordingly (c), predictive models of cognitive and functional decline were fine-tuned and evaluated using a nested cross-validation approach (d), and models were selected and finalised for each outcome measure (e). Finally, a decision support tool was designed to deploy both predictive models in clinical settings (f).
