Abstract
In this study, we examined the performance of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with different cognitive profiles on the Face-Name Associative Memory Examination (FNAME). We evaluated 71 patients with a comprehensive neuropsychological battery. The results revealed that the group with executive and additional visuospatial deficits demonstrated significantly lower scores on FNAME. This finding indicates the possible clinical utility of FNAME for screening patients with PD with distinct cognitive profiles. Further longitudinal studies are needed to consider the prognostic adequacy of FNAME in detecting high-risk Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD).
