Digital Cognitive Test for Early Detection of Dementia
Olga Vasileiou, Haralampos Karanikas. Studies in health technology and informatics, 2024-08-22
Topic: Brain imaging, connectivity and assessment
Dementia poses a significant global health problem, necessitating early detection for effective intervention. A literary review was conducted to examine current mobile-based cognitive tests. The limitations of the reviewed applications varied from accessibility to reliability. The paper addresses these limitations by proposing a digital, self-administered version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) test, with future research focusing on validating the effectiveness of the proposed mobile application in early detection.

How this study scored 43/100
Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multi-centre collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 24 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 43 out of 100.
