由于缺乏适当的工具和先前存在的认知障碍，智力残疾(ID)者的记忆力下降的评估比普通人群更困难。这项研究的目的是描述患有唐氏综合症的健康成年人(健康-DS；前瞻性队列)在西班牙版线索回忆测试(MCRT)上的表现。我们还回顾招募了一组患有阿尔茨海默病类型痴呆(DS-DAT)的DS受试者。健康DS的自由回忆和总分均高于DS-DAT。年龄是MCRT分数下降的主要因素。MCRT对ID位于频谱上端或ID位于频谱中段的DS患者有用，并能很好地区分有无DAT的DS患者。
The assessment of memory decline in people with intellectual disability (ID) is more difficult than in the general population, due to a lack of appropriate instruments and to preexisting cognitive impairment. The aim of this study was to describe performance of healthy adults with Down syndrome (healthy-DS; prospectively cohort) on a Spanish version of the modified Cued Recall Test (mCRT). We also recruited retrospectively a cohort of DS subjects with Dementia of the Alzheimer's Type (DS-DAT). Healthy-DS obtained higher scores on free recall and total score than DS-DAT. Age was the main factor associated with decreasing mCRT scores. The mCRT was useful in DS subjects with ID at the upper end of the spectrum or ID in the middle range of the spectrum, and discriminated well between DS subjects with and without DAT.
