    • We examined cross-sectional differences and longitudinal changes in episodic memory performance related to impending death among a group of very old people, aged 90–101 years. Participants were assessed at 3 measurement points across a 6-year interval. Three groups were identified: those who survived the entire follow-up period (n =40), those who died before the first follow-up (n =44), and those who died after the first follow-up (n =14). Participants completed a battery of episodic memory tasks consisting of face recognition, word recognition, word recall, and object recall with selective reminding. Those who survived performed better than those who were going to die in object recall at baseline. A Cox regression analysis, controlling age, revealed that object recall performance was significantly related to subsequent mortality status. Longitudinal analyses demonstrated significant 3-year decline for both face recognition and object recall, but no evidence of differential decline as a function of mortality group. Thus, longitudinal changes in memory preceding death were not as pronounced as the corresponding cross-sectional differences in this very old sample. In general, the results suggest that mortality-related memory deficits are present in extreme old age, although these deficits are relatively small and task-specific.

  • A preclinical phase in vascular dementia: cognitive impairment three years before diagnosis
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: Dementia and geriatric cognitive disorders. - : S. Karger AG. - 1420-8008 .- 1421-9824. ; 18:3-4, s. 233-239

    • Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD) patients exhibit similar patterns of deficits in many cognitive tasks in the early clinical stages. Considering that preclinical cognitive deficits are well documented in AD, the purpose of the present study was to investigate if such deficits are also present in VaD. The cognitive outcome measure was the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). The sample was taken from a population-based study and consisted of 699 persons who were nondemented at baseline, but out of whom 35 persons were diagnosed with VaD and 170 with AD at a 3-year follow-up. Both the incident VaD and AD cases exhibited baseline deficits on the total score of the MMSE and three of the subscales: orientation to time, orientation to place, and delayed memory. Further, both dementia groups exhibited precipitous decline on most MMSE subscales during the 3-year follow-up period. Logistic regression analyses showed that all subscales that revealed deficits at baseline predicted dementia status at follow-up. Delayed memory was the best predictor in both preclinical VaD and preclinical AD. Thus, these results demonstrate preclinical cognitive deficits in VaD in a measure of global cognitive functioning, which closely resemble those observed in AD. This observation suggests that circulatory disturbance is associated with cognitive problems several years before the actual VaD diagnosis.
