scores in the MMSE (p1⁄40.036), in delayed recall of BCSB (p1⁄40.048) and higher scores in the FAQ (p1⁄40.014). Low education was not predictive of conversion to dementia (p1⁄40.367). Conclusions: The conversion rate of CIND and MCI to dementia were in lower range when compared to international studies mostly performed in developed countries. Educational level was not a predictor of conversion to dementia.
