متن کاملMild cognitive impairment: risk of dementia according to subtypes.
UNLABELLED Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has 3 clinical subtypes: amnestic (aMCI), multiple domains (mdMCI) and non-amnestic single domain (na-SD-MCI) whose evolutive possibility to dementia has not been profoundly studied.
