editor note |
Remove last sentence of defintion. "Typically" doesn't ontologize well. Nor do fill-in-the-blanks ;-) Mark Jensen Suggest removing 'mild' from label. Dementia is not a type of mild cognitive impairment. A syndrome of cognitive impairment makes more sense and tracks far better with reality. A diagnosis of MCI can be non-pathological, ie- normal ageing related cognitive decline. Mark Jensen |
