Objective: Exploration of the nature of very early or mild Alzheimer disease is essential in understanding natural history, assessment of therapeutic interventions and accurate estimation of prevalence or incidence of Alzheimer disease. Method : Scores of the Korean version of Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSEK) and a variety of cognitive functions were compared between questionable and mild dementias of the Alzheimer type. Measurements of cognitive functions were derived from semi-structured interview with the subjects. The two groups were controlled for age(±4),sex, and education, but differed regarding the severity of dementia. Results : Total and subtest scores of the MMSEK and all cognitive functions except for long-term memory were similar between the two severities of dementia of the Alzheimer type. Conclusion : These findings suggest that questionable Alzheimer disease may be very early or mild Alzheimer disease.
