摘　　要：Objective To assess whether quick cognitive screening test （QCST） could quickly identify mild cognitive impairment （MCI）. Methods QCST and a full set of standardized neuropsychological tests, including mini-mental state examination （MMSE） and montreal cognitive assessment （MoCA） were performed. A total number of 121 cases of MCI [41 cases of amnestic MCI-single domain （aMCI-s）; 44 of amnestic MCI-multiple domain （aMCI-m）; 36 of nonamnestic MCI （naMCI）], 79 cases of mild Alzheimer’s disease （AD） and 186 healthy elderly volunteers were employed in the present study. All the participants （55-85 years old） had an educational level no less than 5 years. QCST subtests included word list recall, naming test, animal fluency test, similarity test, color trail-1min, clock drawing test, finger construction test, and digit span test. The total score of QCST was 90 points, 10 points for each index of subtests. Results The total scores of QCST in MCI, AD and the control groups were （58.13±8.18）, （44.53±10.54） and （72.92±6.85） points, respectively. According to the educational level, the cut off scores of participants with an educational level of 5-8 years, 9-12 years and more than 13 years were 63, 65 and 68 points, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of QCST in detection of MCI were 87.6% （85.7% for aMCI-s, 90.1% for aMCI-m and 89.5% for naMCI） and 84.3%, respectively. The area under the curve was 0.923 （95% CI： 0.892-0.953）. Delayed memory, color trail-1min and similarity test could help distinguish between aMCI and naMCI. Conclusion QCST may have a good sensitivity and specificity for MCI detection, which warrants its further clinical application.目的轻度认知损害(mild cognitive impairment,MCI)可根据认知表现分为遗忘型MCI(aMCI)和非遗忘型MCI(naMCI)。本研究旨在编制快速认知筛查测验(quick cognitive screening test,QCST)便于快速全面地识别MCI,为进一步研究提供依据。方法符合MCI操作性诊断标准的MCI组121例、符合DSM-Ⅳ有关痴呆诊断标准的阿尔茨海默病(AD)组79例和正常老年人组186例,参与了QCST和标准化全套神经心理测验。参与者教育程度均在5年或以上,年龄55-85岁。QCST项目包括即刻记忆、延迟回忆、命名、动物流畅性、相似性、彩色连线B、画钟、手指结构、数字广度等9个分测验,每个分测验满分10分,总分90分,耗时10-15分钟。结果MCI组、AD组和正常老年人组QCST总分分别为(58.13±8.18)、(44.53±10.54)和(72.92±6.85)分。制定教育程度在5-8年、9-12年、高于13年3个组别的QCST总分的划界分分别为63、65和68分。QCST识别MCI的敏感性为87.6%,其中识别aMCI-s、aMCI-m和naMCI的敏感性分别为85.7%、90.1%和89.5%,特异性均为84.3%。曲线下面积为0.923(95%CI:0.892-0.953)。延迟回忆、连线和相似性均有助于区分aMCI与naMCI。结论QCST对MCI具有较高的敏感性和特异性,可在临床和流行病学调查方面进行推广应用。
