About this trial

This study looks at people with Alzheimer's disease to find out which factors are linked to their initial score on the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and which factors may predict a fast decline in their score over 12 months. Researchers will review medical records from patients seen at the Memory Clinic of Gonesse Hospital and analyze information such as age, education, medical history, nutrition, mood, and caregiver burden. The goal is to better understand what influences early cognitive performance and how quickly it changes, to help improve patient care and planning.
