Because most measures did not have a normal distribution, comparisons were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test, and contrasts were performed using the Mann-Whitney with the post-hoc Bonferroni test. We performed an additional analysis, this time comparing only MCI and normal groups — excluding all individuals that received a diagnosis of AD from either battery — ; the comparisons were made considering 28 MCI and 37 normal individuals. All neuropsychological tests showed significant differences between kci normal and AD groups. Most of the studies on MCI have considered only amnestic subtypes, including both single and multiple domains It should be noted that there is no consensus on the definition of impairment in non-memory functions, an aspect that may jeopardize the recognition of non-amnestic MCI.

Kishicage Most of the studies on MCI have considered only amnestic subtypes, including both single and multiple domains Introduction Many studies of mild cognitive impairment MCI in the last decade have sought to elucidate clinical, neuropsychological and neuroimaging aspects 1.
One possible explanation is that AD is the most common type of dementia; thus, samples comprising individuals with cognitive decline without dementia are expected to include primarily amnestic subtypes of MCI.
You may select the license of your choice. All neuropsychological tests showed differences between clinical-control and dementia groups. Gardazahn For this reason, we selected tests with normative data, extensive data, or both because future studies may provide specific norms for the proposed brief battery.
Neuropsychological profile of Brazilian older adults with heterogeneous educational backgrounds. Furthermore, it should be noted that for the purposes of an individual evaluation, there is a paucity of adequate normative data in our country, which is well known for the enormous heterogeneity of the population in different regions.
However, sensitivity and specificity significantly decreased when brief battery was tested to discriminate only normal and MCI diagnosis. For the same reason, the value of our brief battery in the ancillary diagnosis of dementias associated with behavioral changes or psychopathological symptoms remains to be demonstrated. To treat or not to treat? The use of batteries without memory tasks — or without memory tasks evaluating retention over time — has a greater likelihood of failure in identifying cases of amnestic MCI single domain where memory deficits are not accompanied by other cognitive impairments.

Most studies focus on the amnestic subtype of MCI, single or multiple-domain 5as the best predictor of AD, which is the most prevalent dementia in the elderly 6which associate with significant impact even in initial in mild phase 7.
Digit Span forward performances did not differ among the three groups, indicating that there were no differences in the phonological loop. Prevalence of dementia in Latin America: This image, work, or other file associated with it is an original work by Adam E.
We found it to be important even though it does not help to discriminate normal individuals from those with MCI. Distinguishing individuals with dementia z those with mild cognitive impairment MCI might demand a neuropsychological evaluation. It should be stressed that the proposed brief battery alone does not provide an MCI diagnosis per sewhich requires clinical evaluation by the physician. You may jci so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.

The positive and negative predictive values were The diagnoses generated by a brief battery were then compared to the golden standard diagnoses, as explained above. Many studies of mild cognitive impairment MCI in the last decade have sought to elucidate clinical, neuropsychological and neuroimaging aspects 1.

Two analyses were then performed, both comparing the brief and the comprehensive batteries, but considering only two groups for each analysis described below. One hundred and thirty-one elderly patients 37 controls, 41 MCI and 53 possible or probable AD were consecutively referred for neuropsychological evaluation in a private clinic.
This study should be understood in light of some limitations. The tests in the brief battery were chosen based on the following criteria: Utilizamos curvas ROC para estabelecer sensibilidade e especificidade da bateria breve para discriminar: Daily activities were investigated with Pfeffer Functional Activities Questionnaire In such cases where the image is specifically intended to depict a person or sporting event, then your use of this image may be restricted due to trademark, personality rights, or other rights of the league or teams involved independent of my rights as the photographer.
For example, 13 MCI subjects were incorrectly classified as having dementia, whereas 5 individuals with dementia were reclassified as MCI.

File:Atlantic Express MCI jpg — Wikimedia Commons Based on the literature review, we hypothesized that a minute battery would be suitable to discriminate the three groups with good sensitivity and specificity. Acknowledgments We would like to thank Raphael Suwwan for his contribution q statistical analyses.
When attributing pictures from my Wikimedia Commons galleryuse Adam E. Diagnoses were made by consensus by a trained, board-certified neuropsychologist GC and a board-certified psychiatrist PMconsidering DSM-IV criteria, neuroimaging MRIclinical data and the neuropsychological results from the full battery. When grouping MCI and normal individuals in the same group and comparing their performance to that of AD individuals, we found good sensitivity and specificity In this step, the clinicians only considered neuropsychological results.
Because our study was focused in individuals with memory complaints following other studies comprising amnestic MCIwe do not know whether our brief battery might be helpful in diagnosing non-amnestic MCI or non-Alzheimer dementias.
In fact, Digit Span does not process semantic information 26 and is generally intact at the preclinical and early stages of AD Contrarily to our expectations, both sensitivity and specificity of brief battery significantly decreased MCI diagnoses were made according to the definitions proposed by Winblad et al. Mikajinn Measurement functional activities in older adults in the community.
Introduction Many studies of mild cognitive impairment MCI in the last decade have sought to elucidate clinical, neuropsychological and neuroimaging aspects 1. Methods One hundred and thirty-one elderly patients 37 controls, 41 MCI and 53 possible or probable AD were consecutively referred for neuropsychological evaluation in a private clinic.
Some studies in Brazil have proposed new neuropsychological batteries and brief screening tools for the diagnosis of both MCI and dementia Screening for mild cognitive impairment: This work, or any and all derivative works created therefrom now or in the future, may be used and released only under the terms of the license s or other compatible license as indicated by the Creative Commons or GFDL; whichever one is given below this notice. We compared performance of the three groups on all full battery tasks.

Sakasa Distinguishing individuals with dementia from those with mild cognitive impairment MCI might demand a neuropsychological evaluation.

It should be noted that there is no consensus on the definition of impairment in non-memory functions, an aspect that may jeopardize the recognition of non-amnestic MCI. We also used ROC curves to establish the sensitivity and specificity of the brief battery for discriminating i clinical-control individuals from a group dementia and MCI patients; ii individuals with dementia from individuals without dementia; iii clinical-control individuals from a group of MCI.
