RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are at an increased risk for developing dementia, especially Alzheimer disease; and pharmacological therapy for MCI is limited. As a result, nonpharmacological mediums have been considered to complement standard drug therapy. In this study, we evaluated the effects of nonpharmacological therapies, occupational therapy and music therapy, on cognitive functions and depressive mood in MCI patients. METHODS: We enrolled patients with MCI from the Mapo Dementia Center and divided them into two groups, group A (n=14) who participated in a cognitive program for 12 months and group B (n=15) who did not participate in a cognitive program. We compared the baseline and followed-up scores of the Korean-version of Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE), the Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery (SNSB), and the short version of geriatric depression scale (sGDS) between the two groups. RESULTS: Group A showed improvements in total and language scores in the K-MMSE and digit span backward scores in the SNSB and sGDS. In contrast, group B showed a decline in the Seoul Verbal Learning Test recognition score in the SNSB. Additionally, there were significant intergroup differences in the total and language scores in K-MMSE, the digit span backward score, and the Rey Complex Figure Test-delayed recall scores and depression scores. CONCLUSION: Occupational therapy and music therapy may help to improve cognitive functions and depressive mood in patients with MCI.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The early stage of Alzheimer disease might show early memory impairment with normal general cognitive function. Our study aimed to investigate elderly with normal Korean version of mini-mental state examination (K-MMSE) score and recall score of 0 for 1 year. We predicted that the patients would show different characteristics and would progress more rapidly compared with normal controls. METHODS: This study was based on the data from complete enumeration survey of Mapo-gu Regional Center for Dementia in 2009. We divided all subjects into three groups: subjects with normal K-MMSE scores and recall score of 0 were group 1-1 (n=152), subjects with abnormal K-MMSE scores were group 1-2 (n=64) and subjects with normal K-MMSE scores and recall score of 1 to 3 were group 1-3 (n=941). We compared basic demographics and social characteristics among the three groups. After 1 year (2010), the subjects in group 1-1 (90 out of 152) underwent follow-up examinations for dementia diagnosis. They were also divided into three groups (2-1, 2-2, 2-3) according to K-MMSE and recall scores. RESULTS: Group 1-1 showed different baseline characteristics compared with normal controls. After 1 year, 25.5% (23 out of 90) of the group 2-1 were diagnosed as mild cognitive impairment (n=16) or dementia (n=7). CONCLUSION: Our study suggested that subjects with normal K-MMSE scores but recall score of 0 are not entirely "normal". Further detailed evaluation might be needed if memory impairment is suspicious although the K-MMSE scores are within normal range.
