Early-versus Late-Onset Alzheimer Disease: Long-Term Functional Outcomes Nursing Home Placement and Risk Factors for Rate of Progression

摘要

Background/AimsWhether age at onset influences functional deterioration in Alzheimer disease (AD) is unclear. We, therefore, investigated risk factors for progression in activities of daily living (ADL) and nursing home placement (NHP) in cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI)-treated patients with early-onset AD (EOAD) versus late-onset AD (LOAD).
