Abstract

In order to determine the meaning of cognitive impairment in community dwelling elderly, 3,481 adults were interviewed in their homes using the Mini‐Mental State Examination. Ninety‐six per cent of the population aged 18–64 scored 23 or higher, whereas 80 per cent of the population 65 and over scored 23 or higher. Individuals with low scores were suffering from a variety of psychiatric disorders including dementia. Thirty‐three per cent of the elderly population scoring in the range of 0–23 had no diagnosable DSM‐III condition. Prevalence of dementia from all causes was 6.1 per cent of the population over age 65. Two per cent of the population over age 65 were diagnosed as having Alzheimer's disease

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.
