Cerebrovascular Correlates of Dementia in Rural Communities - The Three Villages Study
Cerebrovascular Correlates of Dementia in Community-dwelling Older Adults Living in Remote Rural Communities - The Three Villages Study. Methodology and Operational Definitions.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
The Three Villages Study is a population-based prospective cohort study designed to reduce the increasing burden of cognitive decline and dementia in rural Ecuador. Before the study, our Executive Committee met with community leaders to explain the aims of the study and to learn about the culture and traditions of villagers. Field personnel were trained to assure uniformity in data collection. With the aid of satellite view (Google Earth, Google Inc., Mountain View, CA), updated sketches of the villages were performed to identify blocks and houses.
The study initially will follow a 3-Phase cross-sectional design. During Phase I, Atahualpa, El Tambo, and Prosperidad residents aged 60 years or more will be identified by means of a door-to-door survey and interviewed with validated questionnaires to identify those with relevant risk factors and suspected conditions of interest. In Phase II, certified neurologists will examine suspected cases as well as random samples of negative individuals, to assess reliability of field instruments and to determine prevalence of the investigated conditions. In Phase III, enrolled individuals will be invited to undergo complementary tests. Thereafter, incoming residents will be recruited and followed-up by means of yearly door-to-door surveys and other overlapping sources to estimate incidence of the disorders of interest.

The Three Villages Cohort
Individuals aged 60 years or more identified by means of door-to-door surveys, living in Atahualpa, El Tambo, and Prosperidad.
Individuals will be interviewed with validated field instruments, and there will be invited for the practice of complementary exams to recognize markers of aterosclerosis and cerebral small vessel disease.
|
Complementary exams are not invasive and will be performed in enrolled individuals who sign a comprehensive informed consent form

To assess cutoffs of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment useful to differentiate normal cognitivion from mild cognitive impairment, and mild cognitive impairment to dementia in the study population

The MoCA was mainly designed to separate normal individuals to those with MCI.
However, a major limitation of the MoCA is its lack of accuracy for identifying persons with dementia.
Therefore, the use of more complex field instruments (yet, feasible to apply in individuals living in rural settings) is needed to determine the burden of dementia and its cerebrovascular correlates in rural communities.
In this regard, the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (CDRS) is a useful tool to assess people living in these settings for establishing the burden and severity of dementia as well as to further assess clinical and neuroimaging correlates of this condition.
