Conversion Between the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment for Patients With Different Forms of Dementia
The Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) are 2 frequently used brief cognitive screening tasks. Here, we provide a conversion method from MMSE to MoCA for patients with Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, and Parkinson dementia/Lewy body dementia, as well as for patients with dementia and with or without previous stroke. This conversion is needed as everyday clinical practice varies in their use of the 2 scales, which makes comparisons between studies, meta-analysis, and patient cohorts difficult.

This reduction in advertising could have made it more attractive for pharmaceutical companies to increase their marketing spending targeting non-PCPs and physicians in urban areas. Understanding responses of pharmaceutical compa...
