P153: The CIMA-Q and CompAS cohort studies on factors associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD): Exploring sociodemographic, health and neuropsychological profile of Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD) participants from two culturally differentiated samples.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective:To explore commonalities and differences in the sociodemographic, health, and neuropsychological characteristics of participants with SCD recruited in two culturally differentiated cohort studies, namely CIMA-Q (Canada; Bellevile et al., 2019) and CompAS (Spain; Juncos et al., 2012).Methods:Older adults with subjective cognitive complaints of the CompAS (N=251; 68.92% women; Control: 30.3%; SCD: 25.9%; MCI: 28.7%) and the CIMA-Q (N=179; 71.5% women; Control:16.1%; SCD: 36.8%; MCI:28.6%) were recruited, respectively, from primary care centers and memory clinics, excluding patients with dementia and other neurological or psychiatric disturbances. Cognitive complaints were assessed considering coincident items of the QAM and MFE questionnaires. Cut-off points for the 5%ile were calculated independently in both samples and according to this, participants were classified as SCD or controls (CompAS: N= 141; CIMA-Q: N=161) considering complaints relevance at baseline (Pereiro et al., 2021). Participants underwent neuropsychological assessment. Participants diagnosed as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) were excluded from the analysis. Between cohort-studies and inter-group (control, SCD) differences were tested in the sociodemographic, health and neuropsychological measures considered. The Holm-Bonferroni correction was applied to reduce the probability of type I error (p<.003).Results:Identical cut-off points for 5%ile were obtained in both samples though SCD prevalence was slightly higher in CIMA-Q. For both samples, equivalence between Control and SCD participants in sociodemographic, health, functionality, and neuropsychological measures was observed. Only complaints and depressive symptomatology was significantly higher in SCD participants than in controls in both CompAS and CIMA-Q studies.Participants of the CIMA-Q, Controls and SCD, showed significantly higher age, cognitive reserve proxies, comorbidity, and better attentional performance than the CompAS participants (see Table 1). CompAS participants, Controls and SCD, showed more neuropsychiatric symptomatology than CIMA-Q participants (see Table 1).Conclusions:Control and SCD participants showed equivalence on sociodemographic, health, functional, and neuropsychological measures in both studies. However, significant between-sample differences in the two groups, particularly in SCD participants, were observed in sociodemographic, health, cognitive reserve, behavioral and attentional measures. Identification of these factors are critical to analyze the transcultural validity of cognitive complaints in predicting progression to AD.Table 1Between group (control, SCD) and Between study (CIMA-Q, CompAS) differences in sociodemographic, health, and cognitive measuresCIMA-QCompASBetween-studies differencesBetween-group differencesBetween-group differencesControlSCDSociodemographicsAgeNSNSCIMA-Q>CompAS; F(1,124)=22.78; p<.001CIMA-Q>CompAS; F(1,172)=36.97; p<.001GenderNSNSNSNSSchooling (years)NSNSNSCIMA-Q>CompAS; F(1,172)=20.74; p<.001Prof. qualificationNSNSCIMA-Q>CompAS; χ24=18.18; p=001CIMA-Q>CompAS; χ24=33.95; p<001Cognitive reserve (quartiles)NSNSCIMA-Q>CompAS; χ23=13.57; p=004CIMA-Q>CompAS;χ23==42.56; p<001Memory familiar antecedentsNSNSNSCIMA-Q>CompAS; χ21==15.03; p<001NeuropsychologySubjective complaints*SCD>Control; F(1,119)=147.17, p<.001)SCD>Control; F(1,177)=192.87, p<.001NSNSCharlson Index*SCD>Control; F(1,115)=5.29, p=.023NSCIMA-Q>CompAS; F(1,123)=394.96; p<.001CIMA-Q>CompAS; F(1,168)=335.98; p<.001General cognitionNS (MoCA)NS (CAMCOG-R)----GDS-15*SCD>Control; F(1,119)=8.60, p=.004SCD>Control; F(1,176)=11.97, p<.001NSNSTMT-A (secs.)*NSNSNSNSTMT-B (secs.)*NSNSCompAS>CIMA-Q; F(1,118)=12.56; p<.001CompAS>CIMA-Q; F(1,163)=21.74; p<.001Verbal fluencyNSNSNSNSSemantic fluencyNSNSNSNSBoston testNSNSNSNSNPI-QNSNSCompAS>CIMA-Q; F(1,119)=16.68; p<.001CompAS> CIMA-Q; F(1,162)=24.46; p<.001Immediate recall (RAVL test)NSNSNSNSShort delay (RAVL test)NSNSNSNSLong delay(RAVL test)NSNSNSNSIntrusions (RAVL test)NSNSNSNSIAVD*NSNSNSNSNote: *On these measures, higher scores denote worse cognition or health condition.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
