• Donepezil delays progression to AD in MCI subjects with depressive symptoms -- Lu et al. 72 (24): 2115 -- Neurology: The randomized, double-blind trial assigned 756 patients age 55 to 91 years with amnestic mild cognitive impairment to receive donepezil, vitamin E or placebo. Depressive symptoms at baseline were determined via the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and patients were followed for three years or until the progression to possible or probable Alzheimer' ;s. The results were reported in the June 16 online issue of Neurology. Donepezil appears to modify the higher risk of Alzheimer' ;s disease that comes with depression in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment, the authors concluded. The study is limited, however, in that it involves a predominately Caucasian sample, which restricts the generalizabili ty of results, they said.
