Long Pause Ratio in Speech Reflecting Dementia Severity and Hippocampal Atrophy in Early Alzheimer's Disease
Long pause ratio appears rarely in normal controls of our participants. However, LPR increases as the severity of dementia worsens. Moreover, it also correlates with hippocampal size in our cohort. LPR should be considered as a critical linguistic feature in speech analysis.
