“‘Simple test’ improves dementia prediction rates,” Healio

Quote:

“Among patients with declining Mini-Mental State Examination scores, administration of the Visual Association Test may help identify those at higher risk for dementia, according to findings that were just published in Annals of Family Medicine.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, Administrative Coordinator, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):

Early identification of dementia risk is more important than ever now that research like Dr. Dale Bredesen’s in The End of Alzheimer’s suggests dietary, exercise and other interventions can delay and even reverse its progression. See “LTC Bullet: The End of Alzheimer’s,” Friday, April 20, 2018.
