P73. A new cognitive diagnostic marker to distinguish between Subjective Cognitive Decline, mild cognitive impairment and healthy adults?

Patients with Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD) have an increased risk of Alzheimer's diseases (AD) pathology while their performance in usual cognitive tests is normal. The goal of the present study was to assess whether another cognitive test, late verbal recall, can distinguish between SCD, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and no cognitive impairment (healthy controls, HC).We used a late recall method which has so far only been applied in epilepsy patients (Witt et al., 2012). After being screened with the CERAD test battery (Morris et al., 1989; Mirra et al., 1991) patients from our memory clinic were called 24 h later and asked whether they still remembered words of the list they had to learn the day before.
