What did studies of cognitive impairment without dementia find?

1

Studies of cognitive impairment without dementia measured one outcome, Risk identification for ADL dependence.

Risk identification for ADL dependence

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Cognitive impairment without dementia is linked with better risk identification for ADL dependence in humans (added to a model that already included physical frailty) (Harrell's C 0.74 vs 0.71).

    “increased accuracy in identifying those at higher risk of ADL dependence (Harrell's concordance [C], 0.74 vs 0.71; P < .001)”

What is cognitive impairment without dementia linked with?

2

Studies link cognitive impairment without dementia with 2 measures: death and ADL dependence.
