abstract = {Specific features of subjective cognitive decline
(SCD-plus) have been proposed to indicate an increased risk
of preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, few
studies have examined how these features relate to AD
biomarkers in cognitively unimpaired (CU) older
adults.Meta-analyses were performed using cross-sectional
data from nine cohorts (n = 7219, mean age (SD): 71.17
(5.9), $56.5\%$ female) to determine associations of
SCD-plus features with positron emission tomography (PET)-
or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-derived amyloid beta (Aβ) and
tau biomarkers.Participants with preclinical AD
(community-based only) were more likely to fulfill SCD-plus
features. The presence of self-reported memory decline,
associated concern/worry, and a higher number of fulfilled
features were all associated with high Aβ levels. Only the
latter was associated with abnormal tau.Simultaneous
endorsement of multiple SCD-plus features is a robust
indicator of abnormal AD biomarkers in CU older adults,
whereas isolated SCD features seem only sensitive to
elevated Aβ, supporting their value as early behavioral
markers of preclinical AD.About two-tenths of our sample had
abnormal amyloid beta (Aβ) levels with evidence of
subjective cognitive decline (SCD). Preclinical AD
subsamples (community-based) had a higher percentage of
participants meeting SCD-plus features. Self-reported memory
decline and concern/worry were the sole features associated
with high Aβ, but not tau, burden. A higher number of
fulfilled SCD-plus features are linked to high Aβ and tau
burden. Use of multiple SCD-plus features may help identify
early stages of biological AD.},
