Cognitive Functions in Questionable Dementia and Non-Dementia
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Cognitive functions including memory were compared between the elderly with non-dementia and the elderly with questionable dementia in a rural community They were all 65 years old or more. Short-term and long-term memories were significantly
poorer
in
people with questionable dementia. The differences were not due to age. however, all cognitive functions except for short-term and long-term memories were similar between the two groups. These findings suggest that questionable dementia may be
qualitatively different from non-dementia and may be classified as early or very mild dementia.
