Introduction:

This study compared the Turkish version of Test Your Memory (TYM) MMSE (Mini-Mental State Examination) and CDT (Clock Drawing Test) in patients with neurocognitive disorder.

Methods:

After a thorough medical workup, patients with a diagnosis of neurocognitive disorder were enrolled. A cross-sectional design was used to compare the TYM results with those of MMSE and CDT.

Results:

This study was conducted on 100 patients, including 46 males and 54 females, aged 52 to 86. The majority of patients were diagnosed with vascular neurocognitive disorder. The z-score of TYM-TR was significantly lower in the domains of registration, recall, visuospatial, and total score. The same results were achieved when CDT was added to MMSE. The same pattern was observed separately for those who were diagnosed with a mild or major neurocognitive disorder.

Conclusion:

Patients’ cognitive deficits might be more evident when measured by the TYM-TR compared to the MMSE.

土耳其语版本的“测试您的记忆”（TYM-TR）作为记忆库中的筛选工具

介绍：

这项研究比较了患有神经认知障碍的土耳其语版本的“测试您的记忆力（TYM）MMSE（迷你精神状态检查）”和“ CDT（钟表测试）”。

方法：

经过彻底的医学检查后，纳入诊断为神经认知障碍的患者。使用横截面设计将TYM结果与MMSE和CDT的结果进行比较。

结果：

这项研究针对100例患者进行，其中男46例，女54例，年龄52至86岁。大多数患者被诊断出患有血管神经认知障碍。TYM-TR的z得分在注册，回忆，视觉空间和总得分方面显着降低。将CDT添加到MMSE后，获得了相同的结果。对于诊断为轻度或重度神经认知障碍的患者，分别观察到相同的模式。

结论：

与MMSE相比，通过TYM-TR进行测量时，患者的认知缺陷可能更为明显。
