   Proposal Description:
   New criteria for mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease (PD-MCI) have been proposed by the Movement Disorder Society to distinguish these subjects from cognitively normal PD patients and those with PD dementia (PDD). In this analysis we aim to characterize PD-MCI in the NACC sample. Characteristics of interest include demographics, subject health history, neuropsychological tests, ability to perform functional activities, and neuropsychiatric symptoms.
