Association Between Incident Neuropsychiatric Symptoms and Cognitive Decline in Cognitively Unimpaired Older Adults
These findings underscore the importance of assessing cognitive change in cognitively unimpaired older adults with recent-onset NPS. Additionally, they indicate the potential benefits of combining NPS assessments with biological markers and cognitive test scores to predict those at risk of cognitive decline. These results further support the role of NPS in the pathophysiology of cognitive decline.
