对20例早发性阿尔茨海默病所致的轻、中度痴呆患者的书写能力障碍进行了研究。对每个患者的简短叙事性写作样本进行多成分分析，并将这一写作熟练程度分数与认知功能标准测试结果以及痴呆症程度评级进行比较。在这些患者中，这种简短的叙事写作能力测试与痴呆症的严重程度之间存在显著的相关性。对写作能力的分析似乎是评估阿尔茨海默病引起的痴呆症严重程度的一种简单方法。需要进一步的研究来显示这种失写测量在这种疾病亚型中的潜在用处。
Impairment of writing ability was studied in 20 patients with mild to moderate dementia caused by early-onset Alzheimer's disease. A multicomponent analysis was made of a brief narrative writing sample obtained from each patient, and this writing proficiency score was compared with results of standard tests of cognitive function as well as ratings of the degree of dementia. In these patients, significant correlations were observed between this brief test of narrative writing ability and the severity of dementia. An analysis of writing proficiency appears to be a simple means of assessing the severity of dementia caused by Alzheimer's disease. Further studies are needed to show the potential usefulness of such measures of agraphia in subtyping this disease.
