Group External Memory Aid Treatment for Mild Cognitive Impairment
<p>Short-term memory deficits associated with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) make complex daily activities challenging. External memory aids (EMA) could help compensate for impairments. The study purpose was to examine the effects of group EMA treatment for individuals with MCI on functional EMA …

Characterization and Differences Between Possible and Probable Mild Cognitive Impairment
Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is the period of subtle cognitive decline that occurs between normal aging and clinical Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Patients' subjective memory complaints (SMCs) are essential to the diagnosis of MCI. In cases where memory complaints are not verifiable by objective …

A Study on Multimodal AI for Mild Cognitive Impairment Detection
<p>Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is an early stage of memory loss or other cognitive ability loss in individuals who maintain the ability to independently perform most activities of daily living. It is considered a transitional stage between normal cognitive stage and more severe cognitive …

The Influence of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) on Marital Relationships
… of this study was to examine the influence of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) on marital relationships. MCI refers to age-related decline in memory and other cognitive processes that do not necessarily interfere with daily activities or the maintenance of social relationships with others …

MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT AS A PREDICTOR OF HOSPITAL UTILIZATION AND READMISSIONS
… older adults, healthcare studies have neglected mild cognitive impairment (MCI) as a potential contributor to high cost utilization. This study explored whether a) older adults classified with MCI experience increased rates of index hospitalization compared to those with normal cognition; b) …

Identifying Predictors of Reversion from Mild Cognitive Impairment to Normal Cognition
Studies on mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have focused on identifying predictors of progression to dementia, yet relatively few studies have examined predictors of reversion from MCI to normal cognition. This retrospective study incorporated data from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center …

Performance on the Texas Functional Living Scale (TFLS) In Mild Cognitive Impairment
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) describes the transitional state between normal aging and dementia for many individuals, although debate continues over whether MCI represents an initial, separate condition, or if it is, in fact, the earliest presentation of dementia. One criterion for the diagnosis …

Clinical Significance of Pattern of Memory Deficits in Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment
Background & OBJECTIVES: Although the recent progress in acute ischemic stroke treatment, carotid terminus occlusion (CTO) is quite demanding to recanalize, and even if it is achieved, the morbidity and mortality rates remain high. In this study, we aimed to discover a prognostic marker for acute …

The function and structure of the entorhinal cortex in mild cognitive impairment
… and structure of the entorhinal cortex in mild cognitive impairment Background: The entorhinal cortex (EC) is the first brain region to exhibit neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). As such, tests of EC function may help aid detection of the disease in its earliest stages. Animal …

EEG Features of Working Memory Impairment in Alzheimer’s Dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment
The presence of working memory impairments in individuals with Alzheimer’s Dementia (AD) or Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is well-accepted; however, the neurophysiological mechanisms contributing to these impairments have not been fully elucidated. Research has reliably shown that oscillatory …
