Characterizing the contribution of alcohol use towards neuropsychological profiles in mild cognitive impairment
In participants with AD-MCI or V-MCI, excessive alcohol use is associated with worse memory encoding and retrieval, but not retention. This is consistent with a more dysexecutive memory profile than a typical amnestic cognitive profile. Future studies should investigate underlying mechanisms for these deficits, and their impact on prognosis of the illness.
