"Noncognitive" Symptoms of Early Alzheimer Disease Neurol 84:617-622, Masters, M.C.,et al, 2015 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract We found a significantly earlier presence of positive symptoms on the NPI-Q in cognitively normal patients who subsequently developed CDR >0. Among participants with no depression symptoms at baseline, results suggest that depressive symptoms may increase with aging regardless of incipient dementia. Such findings begin to delineate the noncognitive course of Alzheimer disease dementia in the preclinical stages. Future research must further elucidate the correlation between noncognitive changes and distinct dementia subtypes.
