[Diagnostic approaches to assessing mild behavioral impairment in patients with mild cognitive impairment].

Novel data on the diagnostic features of MBI in elderly patients with MCI in the Russian-speaking population are presented. An optimal diagnostic cut point for the MBI-C scale in a sample of patients from specialized clinics for comprehensive use with commonly accepted criteria was determined. Further research is needed to adapt and validate the MBI-C scale and provide prognostic evaluation of MBI in the context of MCI progression to dementia.
