          Abstract

          RESUMEN: Objetivo: Determinar si la memoria semántica es un factor asociado al deterioro cognitivo en adultos mayores de Lima. Método: Se aplicaron la batería de Evaluación de la Memoria Semántica para Adultos Mayores (EMSEA), el Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) y otros instrumentos que fueron utilizados como criterios externos. La muestra estuvo constituida por 158 adultos mayores de Lima Metropolitana entre 60 a 95 años de edad. La EMSEA diferencia entre una muestra normal y clínica, siendo la sensibilidad de 80% y la especificidad de 100% para un punto de corte de 251. Se evidencia validez concurrente y se demuestra un modelo EMSEA de dos factores. La confiabilidad fue adecuada con valor Alfa de Cronbach de .75 y Theta de .80. Resultados: Los datos descriptivos señalaron un 28% de prevalencia de deterioro cognitivo y 23% de nivel de memoria semántica bajo. El modelo predictivo señala que tres áreas de la memoria semántica están asociadas al deterioro cognitivo con un R 2 de 25%, quedando el modelo establecido por: Verificación, denominación de dibujos y analogías. Conclusión: Se concluye que la batería EMSEA presenta evidencia de validez de criterio y constructo, así como consistencia interna.

          ABSTRACT: Objective: To determine if semantic memory is a factor associated with cognitive impairment in older adults in Lima. Method: The Semantic Memory Assessment Battery for Older Adults (EMSEA), the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) and other instruments that were used as external criteria were applied. The sample consisted of 158 older adults from Metropolitan Lima between 60 and 95 years of age. EMSEA differentiates between a normal and clinical sample, with a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 100% for a cut-off point of 251. Concurrent validity is evidenced and a two-factor EMSEA model is demonstrated. Cronbach's Alpha value is .75 and Theta is .80. Results Descriptive data indicated a 28% prevalence of cognitive impairment and a 23% low semantic memory level. The predictive model indicates that three areas of semantic memory are associated with cognitive impairment with an R2 of 25%, leaving the model established by: Verification, naming of drawings and analogies. Conclusion: It is concluded that the EMSEA battery presents evidence of criterion and construct validity, internal consistency and a predictive.

          Classification of primary progressive aphasia and its variants

          This article provides a classification of primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and its 3 main variants to improve the uniformity of case reporting and the reliability of research results. Criteria for the 3 variants of PPA--nonfluent/agrammatic, semantic, and logopenic--were developed by an international group of PPA investigators who convened on 3 occasions to operationalize earlier published clinical descriptions for PPA subtypes. Patients are first diagnosed with PPA and are then divided into clinical variants based on specific speech and language features characteristic of each subtype. Classification can then be further specified as "imaging-supported" if the expected pattern of atrophy is found and "with definite pathology" if pathologic or genetic data are available. The working recommendations are presented in lists of features, and suggested assessment tasks are also provided. These recommendations have been widely agreed upon by a large group of experts and should be used to ensure consistency of PPA classification in future studies. Future collaborations will collect prospective data to identify relationships between each of these syndromes and specific biomarkers for a more detailed understanding of clinicopathologic correlations.

            Mild Cognitive Impairment.

            As individuals age, the quality of cognitive function becomes an increasingly important topic. The concept of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has evolved over the past 2 decades to represent a state of cognitive function between that seen in normal aging and dementia. As such, it is important for health care providers to be aware of the condition and place it in the appropriate clinical context.
