Microlinguistic aspects of the oral narrative in patients with Alzheimer's disease
Open accessAbstract
Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by memory loss and cognitive impairment. Phonological, syntactic, semantic and discursive aspects of language may also be affected. Analysis of micro- and macrolinguistic abilities of discourse may assist in diagnosing AD. The aim of this study was to identify changes in the discourse (lexical errors and syntactic index) of AD patients. Methods 121 elderly subjects narrated a story based on a seven-figure picture description. Results Patients with AD presented more word-finding difficulties, revisions and repetitions, and the syntactic index was lower than controls. Conclusion Performance in microlinguistics at the lexical and syntactic levels was lower than expected in participants with AD.

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.
