To assess the prevalence of " @entity73 No @entity303 " ( @entity73 ) and circumscribed @entity2414 (CMI) and to evaluate their association with vascular risk factors and @entity64 , we examined all @entity1 aged 65 years or over living in three @entity20733 . The survey was conducted by means of a doorto-door 2-phase procedure. As phase 1 screening tests, we used the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), or the Mental Status Questionnaire (MSQ) for @entity1 with < 3 years of schooling. In phase 2, four neurologists examined @entity1 with MMSE scores < 28 or MSQ scores < 10. The diagnostic study consisted of a clinical and neuropsychological examination which included a structured interview with a close respondent. @entity303 was diagnosed by means of DSM III-R criteria. The study protocol was completed by 968 (84.4%) of the 1147 eligible @entity1 . Of the 968 @entity1 , 690 (71.3 %) had no @entity73 , 78 (8.1%) were demented and 200 (20.6 %) suffered from @entity73 . The @entity73 group included 59 @entity1 (6.1% of the study population) with CMI. At the multiple logistic regression analysis, @entity73 was associated with age >or= 75 years (OR 1.6, 95 % CI 1.1.-2.2), < 5 years of schooling (OR 3.7, 95% CI 2.5.-5.5), @entity64 (OR 3.3, 95% CI 1.8.-6.1) and @entity101 (OR 2.3, 95% CI 1.5.-3.5),while CMI was associated with < 5 years of schooling (OR 3.8, 95 % CI 1.9.-7.7), @entity64 (OR 3.1, 95% CI 1.2.-7.9) and @entity101 (OR 3.7, 95% CI 1.7.-8.0). Using normotensive @entity1 as a reference group and adjusting for age, sex, education and @entity64 , the ORs for @entity73 were 1.9 (95 % CI 1.2.-3.0) for treated and 2.9 (95 % CI 1.8.-4.6) for untreated @entity101 @entity1 . In conclusion, @entity101 is significantly and independently associated with both @entity73 and CMI, and the risk of @entity73 is higher in untreated than treated @entity101 @entity1 .
