چکیده

There are some errors on page 2 with the cutoff score for MCI based on MoCA score. Under Methodology, in the last paragraph—5th line, there is an error, " A MoCA score of 26 or less is considered as MCI " which should read as " A MoCA score of less than 26 (25 or less) is considered as MCI. " Under Statistical Analysis— line 9, there is another error, scores " ≤26 " which should be " <26, " and, in Tables 3 and 4, the error is " total score (≤26) " which should be " (<26). "
