TL;DRAbstract

Preventive trials should first target specific patients' groups, and growing information concerning evolution of patients with mild cognitive impairments should be used for a proper selection. Studies on clinical evolution may also help to select appropriate neuropsychological tests, and prevention can be defined as maintained performance on a battery of tests. Disturbance of daily living activities should be considered since it defines occurrence of dementia. Complementary information can be obtained from behavioural evaluation.
