Of the 2712 people who received the Mini Mental State of Examination (MMSE) at the Community Consultation Center for Citizens with MCI and Dementia between December 2007 and December 2019, 1413 people who scored 23 points or less were included. Participants were categorized into mild, moderate, and severe groups, based on their MMSE scores. Participants' characteristics\u2014gender, age, presence or absence of an escort, demographics, family type, and presence or absence of a family doctor\u2014were compared between the groups.
