BACKGROUND TMA-93 examines binding by images, an advantage for the less educated individuals. AIM To compare the discriminative validity of TMA-93 against the picture version of Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT) to distinguish patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) from normal controls (NCs) without excluding less educated individuals. METHODS DESIGN Phase I diagnostic evaluation study. PARTICIPANTS A total of 30 patients with aMCI and 30 NCs matched for sociodemographics variables. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS The diagnostic accuracy for each test was calculated by conducting receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Hanley and McNeil method was used to compare diagnostic accuracy of different tests on the same sample. RESULTS Up to 41.7% of the sample had less than a first grade of education. Both tests showed excellent diagnostic accuracy. The comparisons did not show significant differences. CONCLUSIONS TMA-93 is so accurate as FCSRT to differentiate aMCI from controls including less educated individuals. The test could be considered as a choice in this sociodemographic context.

TMA-93 用于诊断遗忘型轻度认知障碍：与自由和提示选择性提醒测试的比较。


背景 TMA-93 检查图像的结合，这对于受教育程度较低的个人来说是一个优势。目的 比较 TMA-93 与图片版本的自由和提示选择性提醒测试 (FCSRT) 的区分有效性，以区分遗忘性轻度认知障碍 (aMCI) 患者与正常对照 (NC)，而不排除受教育程度较低的个体。方法设计 I 期诊断评估研究。参与者 共有 30 名 aMCI 患者和 30 名 NC 患者进行社会人口统计学变量匹配。统计分析 通过进行受试者工作特征曲线分析来计算每次测试的诊断准确性。使用汉利和麦克尼尔方法比较同一样本的不同测试的诊断准确性。结果 高达 41.7% 的样本受教育程度低于一年级。两项测试均显示出出色的诊断准确性。比较没有显示出显着差异。结论 TMA-93 与 FCSRT 一样准确，可以将 aMCI 与包括受教育程度较低的个体在内的对照区分开来。该测试可以被视为在这种社会人口背景下的一种选择。
