Each neuropsychological test was associated with an average of 50 dCDT features. Results: The study included 2062 participants (age: mean 62, SD 13 years, 51.6% women), among whom 36 were diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment. Associations between a composite score from dCDT features were also assessed for associations with each neuropsychological test and cognitive status (clinically diagnosed mild cognitive impairment compared to normal cognition). A total of 105 features were derived from the dCDT, and their associations with 18 neuropsychological tests were assessed with linear regression models adjusted for age and sex. Participants were administered both the dCDT and a standard protocol of neuropsychological tests that measured a wide range of cognitive functions. Methods: Participants from the Framingham Heart Study, a large community-based cohort with longitudinal cognitive surveillance, who did not have dementia were included. Objective: We aimed to investigate the association between dCDT features and cognitive performance across multiple domains. While a variety of domain-specific features can be derived from the dCDT, it has not yet been evaluated in a large community-based population whether the features derived from the dCDT correlate with cognitive function. Recently, a digital Clock Drawing Text (dCDT) that is able to capture the entire sequence of clock drawing behaviors was introduced.

SLUMS was also found to be significantly better at identifying dementia in its early stages (on a cohort of 58 nursing home residents), compared to the MMSE, the Short Test of Mental State (STMS) and the Test Your Memory (TYM) screening. Interpretationīy comparison to the MMSE, the SLUMS was found to recognize groups of patients with mild cognitive problems that don’t yet rise to the level of dementia diagnosis. The SLUMS score interpretation provides different thresholds based on the education level of the patient. The maximum number of points is 30, with a cut-off for normal cognitive function situated at 27 points (for high school educated subjects) and 25 (for less than high school education).
The evaluation consists of 11 questions that test: The score is also known as the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or the Mild Neurocognitive Disorder (MNCD) and was designed as an alternative screening to the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). The Saint Louis University Mental Status Examination (SLUMS) score is a brief (7 minute) clinician-administered method of screening for Alzheimer’s, other types of dementia or mild neurocognitive impairment.
