Demographic Factors and Cognitive Function Assessments Associated with Mild Cognitive Impairment Progression for the Elderly

Figure 5

ROC curve for prediction of MCI-dementia and healthy-dementia transformation. (a) For MCI patients, a variable (MCI-dementia transformation predictor, MDTP) was calculated as: MDTP = Age − 2 ∗ MMSE score. (b) For MCI patients, using the variable MMSE score alone can specifically predict the attenuation outcome. (c) For healthy ones, a variable (healthy-dementia transformation predictor, HDTP) was calculated: HDTP = Age − 3 ∗ MMSE score − 2 ∗ MoCA score. (d) For those who were diagnosed dementia in 2011, the variable (dementia reversion predictor, DRP): DRP = MoCA score + 4.4 ∗ Children number − 10.1 ∗ Income group can help to indicate a positive end.
