Retinal microvasculature dysfunction is associated with Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:There is a great need for quick tests that identify treatment response in Alzheimer's disease (AD) to determine who benefits from the treatment. In this study, A Quick Test of cognitive speed (AQT) was compared with the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) in the evaluation of treatment outcome in AD. MET...
