   Proposal Description:
   We will measure the risk of progression to dementia for people with MCI according to their memory impairment profile (verbal/visual). We'll analyze the odds of developing dementia using an Odds Ratio analysis. We'll only use cognitive, medical and demographic data.   Goals: to analyze the risk of progression from MCI to dementia according to impairment in specific domains. We expect to find a higher risk of progression in persons with verbal compared to visual impairments. We expect that our findings will make diagnostic criteria for amnestic-MCI more specific
