血管性认知障碍的神经心理学研究进展

血管性认知障碍(vascular cognitive impairment,VCI)是常见的认知损害类型,相比阿尔茨海默病(Alzheimer's disease,AD),VCI具有相对可预防性和治疗性,早期识别意义重大。精确的神经心理学评估能提高早期检出率,但VCI临床表现为以执行功能障碍为主的单个或多个领域认知损害综合征,具有异质性,目前尚无统一的VCI神经测查量表,现有量表需要进一步验证和完善。

Study Progress of Neuropsychological Proifles of Vascular Cognitive Impairment

Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) is the common cause of cognitive dysfunction and dementia. Unlike Alzheimer's disease, VCI is preventable and treatable particularly at early stage of the disease. Accurate neuropsychological scales for assessment of cognitive impairment could improve the detection rate at early stage. The clinical manifestation of VCI is predominated with executive function impairment. It has heterogeneity. There are still no universally accepted scale, and the current scale requires further veriifcation and improvement.
