In Individuals With Subjective Cognitive Decline, Age, Memory and Speed Scores at Baseline Predict Progression to Cognitive Impairment.

Some patients with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) progress to neurocognitive disorders (NCD), whereas others remain stable; however, the neuropsychological determinants of this progression have not been identified. Our objective was to examine baseline neuropsychological indicators that could discriminate between stable SCD Versus progression toward an NCD. We retrospectively included patients consulting for SCD at a university medical center's memory center (Amiens, France) who had undergone 3 or more neuropsychological assessments.
