Examples of MCI in a sentence
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is defined as the intermediate stage between normal aging and dementia (Xxxxxxxx, 2006), which is a series of progressive conditions owing to brain degeneration, including dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and vascular dementia.
This research aims to explore a possible statistical association between latent classes of MCI with neuropsychiatric features and progression time to dementia.
Data from 6,034 participants with MCI were available for this analysis.
The statistic model developed would not only expand the classification of MCI but also suggest potential distinct disease etiologies of dementia.
In this case, we are trying to estimate a survival model that relates the MCI latent classes with the time duration until patients progress into dementia.
