The purpose of the present study is to examine the relationship between fundus examination and the risk of senile denentia due to arteriosclerosis in the elderly.An epidemiological study on the community elderly was carried out on 2 towns in Yamagata Prefecture.The results obtained were as follows: 1) In this examination, 39.3% of males and 39.8% of females were rated at group 0 (according to the classification of Keith,Wagener), 39.3% of males and 42.0% of females at group I, 18.9% of males and 12.7% of females at group IIa, and 2.5% of males and 5.5% of females at group IIb (arterisclerotic retinopathy).2) There was no statistically significant correlation between the group assessed by the Keith,Wagener classification and the correct scores in the Benton's revised visual relation test.3) By applying a method of multivariate analysis named Hayashi's Quantification III, the findings of fundus examination had no close relation with the correct or incorrect scores on Benton's test.4) The subjects with group 0 or I of the Keith,Wagener classification trended to show better results than the subjects with group IIa and over.

本研究的目的是探讨眼底检查与老年人动脉硬化所致老年痴呆症风险的关系。在山形县的2个城镇对社区老年人进行了流行病学研究。获得的结果如下：1）在本次检查中，39.3%的男性和39.8%的女性被评为第0组（根据基思，瓦格纳的分类），组I中39.3%的男性和42.0%的女性，组IIa中18.9%的男性和12.7%的女性，组IIb中2.5%的男性和5.5%的女性（动脉硬化性视网膜病变）。2）根据基思、瓦格纳分类评估的组与本顿修订的视觉关系测试中的正确分数之间没有统计学显著相关性。3）通过应用称为Hayashi定量III的多变量分析方法，眼底检查结果与本顿测验的正确与否无密切关系。4）基思、瓦格纳分型0组或I组的受试者有优于IIa组及以上受试者的趋势。
