Abstract

Importance Depression is common in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and may confer a higher likelihood of progression to dementia. Prevalence estimates of depression in those with MCI are required to guide both clinical decisions and public health policy, but published results are variable and lack precision. Objective To provide a precise estimate of the prevalence of depression in individuals with MCI and identify reasons for heterogeneity in the reported results. Data sources A search of literature from database inception to March 2016 was performed using Medline, Embase, and PsycINFO. Hand searching of all included articles was performed, including a Google Scholar search of citations of included articles. Study selection Articles were included if they (1) were published in English, (2) reported patients with MCI as a primary study group, (3) reported depression or depressive symptoms using a validated instrument, and (4) reported the prevalence of depression in patients with MCI. Data extraction and synthesis All abstracts, full-text articles, and other sources were reviewed, with data extracted in duplicate. The overall prevalence of depression in patients with MCI was pooled using a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was explored using stratification and random-effects meta-regression. Main outcomes and measures The prevalence of depression in patients with MCI, reported as a percentage with 95% CIs. Estimates were also stratified by population source…

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
