Quick Download Links of Scientific Literature
This page collects in one place scientific literature regarding the CANS-MCI referred to in our other science-related blog posts.
The most comprehensive summary of all the science behind the CANS-MCI is contained in the document titled “Scientific Background of the CANS-MCI”. This extracts information from the other literature and discusses the science in depth.
Specificity and sensitivity of the tests was assessed using ROC curve analysis. The ACE-R and MoCA total scores showed similar and very high sensitivity (90%) but lower specificity (67%). The CANS-MCI revealed similarly high sensitivity (89%), and the highest specificity (73%) overall. The MMSE showed the lowest sensitivity (80%) and specificity (60%) in discrimination of the groups.
