“…A CPS score of 2 or higher is equivalent to an average Mini-Mental State Examination score of 19 or lower (Bartfay et al, 2013). This cutoff indicates dementia at the moderate to severe stage (Perneczky et al, 2006) and possible mild to very severe impairment (Morris et al, 1994). A CPS score of 2 or higher has been validated against physician diagnosis and found to be 68% sensitive and 92% specific in detecting dementia (Travers et al, 2013), and against the Cambridge Examination for Mental Disorders of the ElderlyRevised (CAMDEX-R) and found to be 81% sensitive and 80% specific in detecting cognitive impairment (Paquay et al, 2007).…”

Background:Original studies published over the last decade regarding time trends in dementia report mixed results. The aims of the present study were to use linked administrative health data for the province of Saskatchewan for the period 2005/2006 to 2012/2013 to: (1) examine simultaneous temporal trends in annual age-and sex-specific dementia incidence and prevalence among individuals aged 45 and older, and (2) stratify the changes in incidence over time by database of identification.

“…It is important to highlight that CDR, and not MMSE, was employed to consider each patient as mild or moderate AD. MMSE cut-off scores described above were added only to avoid ceiling and floor effects, since CDR is not affected by education and previous reports have already identified significant correlations between their scores 16,17 .…”

Currently, there are no studies reporting how much balance impairment coexists with gait apraxia in mild and moderate Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Objectives To assess correlations among gait apraxia, balance impairment and cognitive performance in mild (AD1, n = 30) and moderate (AD2, n = 30) AD. Method The following evaluations were undertaken: gait apraxia (Assessment Walking Skills); balance performance (Berg Balance Scale); Clinical Dementia Rating and Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE). Results While disregarding AD subgroups, Berg Balance Scale and the MMSE correlated significantly with Assessment Walking Skills and 23% of all subjects scored below its cut-off. After stratification, Berg Balance Scale correlated significantly with Assessment Walking Skills in both AD subgroups, and with the MMSE only in AD1. Conclusions Balance impairment does not necessarily coexist with gait apraxia. Gait apraxia is more prevalent in moderate AD when compared with mild AD.

“…It is routinely used by clinicians to help diagnose dementia and to help assess its progression and severity [20]. MMSE scores below 10 are indicative of severe dementia, scores between 10 and 20 suggests moderate dementia and finally scores greater than 20 suggest mild dementia to non-existent cognitive impairment [21].…”

Running head: quality of life of frail older people in residential aged care Results: There was a large divergence in mean (SD) utility scores at baseline for the EQ-5D-5Land DEMQOL-U [EQ-5D-5L mean 0.21 (0.19); DEMQOL-U mean 0.79 (0.14)]. However, at 4 weeks a stronger degree of convergence was evident [EQ-5D-5L mean 0.45(0.38); DEMQOL-U mean 0.58 (0.38). The EQ-5D was more responsive to the physical recovery trajectory experienced by frail older people following surgery to repair a fractured hip, whereas the DEMQOL-U and DEMQOL-Proxy-U instruments were more responsive to the changes in cognitive functioning often experienced by frail older people in this period.
