A study released Monday concluded that a self-administered test detected signs of potential dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, at least six months ahead of the standard testing method, suggesting the exam may help doctors diagnose patients sooner.
The self-administered gerocognitive examination (SAGE) test picked up on signs of cognitive impairment months earlier among patients than the often used mini-mental state examination (MMSE), according to the research published in the journal Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy.
The SAGE test intends to track the patients’ thinking processes and to spot cognitive impairment symptoms beyond normal aging.
The paper version of the SAGE test is free. The digital version is available through BrainTest.
I tried to sign up for the digital version free trial test but failed, I assume the test is not needed for my case
I would, definitely, early enough to get some risky fun in then a big party and off to Dignitas with a hangover. My dad has dementia, it's a horrible thing, I'd sooner check out early and spare my family.
It's a little confusing why you are taking the time to reply to an obvious troll instead of just banning them. I mean, it's so obvious that I don't even see how it's a discussion.
New members that immediately dive into controversial topics and actively spread misinformation should just be banned (or at least suspended) outright because there can't be any bigger red flags than that kind of behaviour.
Essentially it's that we have to be sure that trolling is the intent, not just a side effect. Guess what you should do if you want to discuss it further.
