简要总结
The aim of this project is to follow cohort of patients with aMCI in order to establish whether there are distinct subgroups in terms of evolution or aetiology, with distinct memory profiles and profiles of mesiotemporal atrophy and metabolic change
详细描述
The syndrome of "amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment" (aMCI) has been introduced for patients with intact activities of daily living, with a memory complaint and objective memory decline on neuropathological assessment, without significative change in other domains of cognition. Follow-up in these patients shows that the memory impairment may remain stable or improve, while it worsens or extends to other cognitive domains in others, indicating prodromal AD.

结局指标
主要结局
Identify the neuropsychological markers and of neuroimaging structural and metabolic useful in clinical practice which allow to predict an escalation
时间窗: 36 months
Identify the neuropsychological markers and of neuroimaging structural and metabolic useful in clinical practice which allow to predict a stabilization or an improvement.
时间窗: 36 months
Pursue the longitudinal study of a troop of subjects presenting an amnestic MCI in 36 months after the initial diagnosis
时间窗: 36 months
Characterize the clinical evolution of these subjects: escalation with appearance of an insanity (of type Alzheimer's disease or of another type: degenerations fronto-temporal, insanity with body of Lewy), stabilization even improvement.
时间窗: 36 months
Improve the state of the knowledge on the origin of the confusions mnésiques isolated at the persons of fifty and more years old.
时间窗: 36 months
次要结局
- Establish diagnostic criteria which allow to improve the sensibility and the specificity of the premature diagnosis of MY.(36 months)
- Determine if the ultra-premature diagnosis of MY at a stage where the hurts are still confined in the structures under - hippocampiques is possible.(36 months)
- Determine the specific character or not of the infringement of the memory of visual recognition in the novice Alzheimer's disease.(36 months)
- Determine the specific character or not the atrophy and the metabolic modifications of regions under - hippocampiques in the novice Alzheimer's disease.(36 months)
- Inform the existence of process of functional compensation in the population of aMCI, notably to those who show themselves stable or improve.(36 months)
