First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to see if asking patients four simple questions about their thinking and memory during a yearly checkup would lead doctors to order more tests or referrals for cognitive decline. The plan was to compare doctor behavior before and after adding the screener. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
