چکیده
Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is used as a diagnostic test for dementia to screen patient’s cognitive assessment and disease severity. However, these examinations are often inaccurate unreliable either due human error or patients’ physical disability correctly interpret the questions well motor deficit. Erroneous data may lead wrong of specific patient. Therefore, other clinical factors (e.g., gender comorbidities) existing in electronic health records, can also play significant role, while reporting her examination results. This work considers various attributes patients accurately determine their status terms Score. We employ machine learning models calibrate MMSE score classify correctness diagnosis among patients, order assist clinicians better understanding progression impairment subsequent treatment. For this purpose, we utilize curated real-world ageing study data. A random forest prediction model employed estimate score, related classification patients.This uses provide accurate predictions, succeeding correcting an important percentage cases that contain previously identified miscalculated scores our dataset. Furthermore, effective mechanism automatically identifying patient episodes with values high confidence. These tools be combined finding within medical records where probably estimating what correct value should be. provides valuable support decision making process diagnosing potential patients.

Urine formaldehyde level is inversely correlated to mini mental state examination scores in senile dementia.
It is widely known that exogenous formaldehyde exposure induces human cognitive impairment and animal memory loss; and recent studies show that formaldehyde at pathological levels induces Aβ deposition and misfolding of tau protein to form globular amyloid-like aggregates. Endogenous formaldehyde may be a marker for progressive senile dementia. The aim of this study was to investigate the corre...

متن کاملUrinary homocysteic acid levels correlate with mini-mental state examination scores in Alzheimer's disease patients.
Homocysteic acid (HA) has been suggested as a pathogen in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD), 3xTg-AD. However, it is not established whether HA is involved in humans. We investigated the relationship between urinary HA levels and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores in AD patients (n = 70) and non-AD controls (n = 34). We found a positive, statistically significant relationship b...
متن کاملThe factorial structure of the mini mental state examination (MMSE) in Japanese dementia patients
BACKGROUND The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is one of the most commonly used instruments in the evaluation of global cognitive status. Few studies have investigated the relationship among its components in terms of factorial structure in Japanese individuals suffering from dementia. The aims of this study were: 1) to analyze the factorial structure of MMSE in Japanese dementia patients,...
