Digital screening incorporates technology into the disease assessment process and plays a significant role in large-scale screening for mild cognitive impairment(MCI)within communities.This consensus systematically reviews and evaluates the existing evidence regarding the effectiveness of digital screening for MCI in these settings.The working group has integrated the perspectives of experts from diverse fields, including clinical practice, scientific research, and industry, to clarify the definitions of digital-related terms.Furthermore, the consensus presents 12 recommendations that outline the main classifications of tools, basic elements to consider, target individuals, screening frequency, and management strategies for digital screening, while also indicating future development directions.The aim is to optimize early diagnosis and treatment strategies for MCI and to promote the advancement of digital screening in cognitive health management for middle-aged and older adults in community settings.

Objective:To investigate the distribution and research status of domestic journals on corticobasal degeneration(CBD)in China.Methods:Articles on CBD from the Wanfang, CNKI, and Vip databases, published in domestic journals before December 31st, 2022, were systematically categorized and analyzed.Utilizing bibliometric methods, the distribution, types, citations, and overall research status of CBD literature were assessed.Results:A total of 61 documents related to CBD were published in domestic journals.The highest number of publications were in 2022 and 2019(7 articles each, 11.48%), followed by 2021 with 6 articles(9.84%).Additionally, 2013, 2012, and 2004 each had 4 articles(6.56%).These articles came from 39 institutions, with the First Medical Center of the People's Liberation Army General Hospital leading with 9 articles(14.75%), followed by Zhejiang Litongde Hospital with 4 articles(6.56%).Across 18 provinces, Beijing had the highest number of publications with 16 articles(26.23%), followed by Tianjin with 7 articles(11.48%).The majority of the publications were clinical studies(59 articles, 96.72%), with clinical feature analysis, clinical scale evaluation, clinical pathological evaluation, and neuroimaging evaluation being the most common topics.Most articles were in the form of full-length papers(40 articles, 65.57%), delving into the clinical characteristics, pathology, neuroimaging, diagnosis, and differential diagnosis of CBD.Of the 61 documents, 26(42.62%)received funding support, with 18 articles(29.51%)supported by national fund projects, 13 articles(21.31%)supported by provincial and ministerial fund projects, and 12 articles(19.67%)supported by multiple fund projects, including 3 supported by two national fund projects(4.92%).Conclusions:The volume of domestic CBD literature remains low, but the number of published articles has shown a significant increase from 2011 to 2022, with Beijing emerging as the primary publishing hub.There is a limited number of funded projects, highlighting the need for stronger discipline construction.Research on the diagnosis, clinical characteristics, and neuroimaging features of CBD is highly prioritized.

Objective:To examines the social health status and influencing factors affecting the elderly population in urban communities of Beijing, based on the "the Standard for Healthy Chinese Older Adults(2022)" .Methods:Using the stratified sampling method, a total of 159 elderly individuals aged 60 and above from the Lanyuan community in the Malianwa street jurisdiction of Haidian district, Beijing, were selected as research subjects.The average age of the participants was(70.7±7.9)years, comprising 74 males and 85 females.Household face-to-face interviews were conducted, utilizing self-compiled questionnaires to perform a comprehensive assessment and analysis of the social health status of the elderly.Results:In the study involving community-based elderly participants, 32.1%(51 cases)were classified as healthy.The analysis revealed statistically significant differences in the social health status among various age groups of the elderly( χ2=11.802, P=0.019), with a notable downward trend in social health status as age increases( χ2=9.626, P=0.002).Furthermore, the results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that educational level( OR=2.119, 95% CI: 1.044-4.031, P=0.038)and chronic disease status( OR=5.007, 95% CI: 1.083-23.140, P=0.039)are significant influencing factors on the social health status of older adults. Conclusions:The social health status of the elderly in urban communities in Beijing is generally low and deteriorates progressively with age.Both educational attainment and chronic disease prevalence significantly influence the social health of this demographic.For elderly individuals with lower educational levels and poor chronic disease management, it is essential to conduct social health assessments and implement targeted intervention strategies to enhance their overall social health.

Objective:To evaluate the health status of elderly individuals by examining physical, psychological, and social health, as well as analyzing the risk factors that affect these dimensions of health among community-dwelling residents.Methods:Utilizing whole group sampling, a total of 404 elderly individuals from the Meiyuan community, located under the jurisdiction of Malianwa Street in Haidian District, Beijing, were selected for this study.The status of physical health, mental health, social health and overall health in the elderly were evaluated by a self-made questionnaire.The influencing factors of health status in all dimensions were analyzed by Chi-square test and multiple logistic regression.Results:The overall health rate among elderly community-dwelling residents in the study was 21.3%(86 cases), while the rates for physical health, mental health, and social health were 66.8%(270 cases), 86.6%(350 cases), and 24.3%(98 cases), respectively.Marital status( OR=2.872, 95% CI: 1.462-5.641), residential status( OR=4.819, 95% CI: 1.294-17.952), cognitive function( OR=3.833, 95% CI: 1.899-7.734), health literacy( OR=0.455, 95% CI: 0.226-0.916), social participation( OR=1.642, 95% CI: 1.192-2.263), social adaptation( OR=1.716, 95% CI: 1.125-2.618), and social network( OR=1.727, 95% CI: 1.147-2.598)were identified as influencing factors for physical health in the elderly(all P<0.05).Factors affecting mental health included instrumental activities of daily living( OR=3.248, 95% CI: 1.997-5.282)and health risk factors( OR=2.475, 95% CI: 1.315-4.656)(all P<0.05).For social health, the influencing factors were residence status( OR=3.158, 95% CI: 1.280-7.794), sleep status( OR=1.801, 95% CI: 1.101-2.947), instrumental activities of daily living( OR=2.966, 95% CI: 1.374-6.405), and life satisfaction( OR=2.362, 95% CI: 1.140-4.893)(all P<0.05).Additionally, education( OR=0.588, 95% CI: 0.360-0.962)and home care services( OR=2.272, 95% CI: 1.278-4.039)were found to affect the overall health of the elderly(all P<0.05). Conclusions:In this study, the overall health rate among community-dwelling elderly residents is reported to be 21.3%.Health status in this population gradually deteriorates with advancing age.Numerous factors influence the multidimensional health of the elderly, with education level and caregiving status identified as significant determinants of their overall health.
