ANU-ADRI是一种自我报告工具，用于评估阿尔茨海默病（AD）的风险。为了验证该仪器的改编葡萄牙语版本，并在巴西进行ANU-ADRI的可靠性测试-重新测试。在这项纵向研究中，样本由两组（A和B）组成（n=100）：每组包括50名患者，由全科医生或痴呆症专家协助。所有参与者在使用MMSE筛选时认知健康。在基线时（试验）和试验后1周内（复检）再次应用ANU-ADRI。ANU-ADRI测验平均分与重测平均分之间有相关性（r=0.918，P<0.001）。A组ANU-ADRI评分高于B组（P<0.05）。ANU-ADRI与MMSE评分呈中度负相关（r=-0.353，P <0.001）。ANU-ADRI是一个有效和可靠的工具，以评估社区居住的巴西人是否有更大的AD风险。受教育程度低与ANU-ADRI的风险评分较高相关。
The ANU-ADRI is a self-report tool that assesses risk for Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). To validate an adapted Portuguese version of this instrument and to carry out the reliability Test-Retest of the ANU-ADRI in Brazil. In this longitudinal study, the sample was formed (n=100) by two groups (A and B): each comprising 50 patients assisted by GPs (general practitioners) or specialists in dementia. All participants were cognitively healthy upon screening using the MMSE. The ANU-ADRI was applied at baseline (Test) and again within 1 week of the test (Retest). There was a correlation between the mean scores of the ANU-ADRI Test and Retest (r=0.918, P<0.001). Group A had higher ANU-ADRI scores than those of group B (P<0.05). There was a moderate negative linear relation between the ANU-ADRI and MMSE scores (r= -0.353, P<0.001). The ANU-ADRI is a valid and reliable instrument to assess whether community-dwelling Brazilians are at greater risk for AD. Low levels of education were associated with higher risk scores on the ANU-ADRI.
