BOTERO-RODRIGUEZ, Felipe; LOPEZ FIGUEROA, Catalina y MORENO-CONTRERAS, Juanita. Evaluation of neuropsychiatry symptoms for the early detection of neurocognitive disorder. Acta Neurol Colomb. [online]. 2023, vol.39, n.1, pp.51-56. Epub 05-Abr-2023. ISSN 0120-8748. https://doi.org/10.22379/24224022442.
INTRODUCTION:
Early diagnosis of neurocognitive disorder is the main challenge of dementia health attention. Therefore, strategies for preclinical detection of the disease have been created, like those intended to evaluate neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS), like the Mild Behavior Impairment - Checklist (MBI-C).
METHODS:
Research was performed in BVSalud, Medline, and Psynet. Then a snowball sampling was done. The terms included were mild behavioral impairment (included NPS in initial stages), mild cognitive impairment, and specific terms of MBI-C.
RESULTS:
The presence of NPS increase the incidence of dementia, with an annual conversion rate of 9%. About MBI-C, the score has been related to biomarkers like worse brain atrophy in patients with Parkinson's Disease and a positive relationship with the presence of B-amyloid protein. Also, Creese and cols. show that mild behavioral impairment (measured by MBI-C) is associated with a faster decrease in attention and working memory.
DISCUSSION:
MBI-C utility as a neurodegenerative marker has been demonstrated to detect cognitive, neuropsychiatry, and functional symptoms that may precede dementia by evaluating its predictive capacity alone and comparing it to other biomarkers.
CONCLUSION:
MBI-C is easy to apply and interpret, is sustainable and inclusive. However, there are still gaps in the relevance of the scale, so there is the need to continue investigating this topic.
