subjective cognitive performance. Those selected undergo baseline visit for (1) diagnosis (SCD/MCI), (2) collecting data feeding a dementia risk algorithm and (3) getting their personalised prevention action plan. At the subsequent visit, their risk estimates are disclosed and a personalised primary prevention advice given. Individuals with MCI are readily offered to enter studies and trials they may benefit from. The emotional impact of disclosure is measured at 1 and 6 weeks and 6 and 12 months post-disclosure. At 6-weeks, SCD participants are also offered to enter suitable prevention trials (Fig.1). Cost-benefit of this program will also be calculated using standard methods. Results: BBDPRC was presented in a press conference and 715 persons registered in the study’s webpage in 48 hours (w1,600, 8 months later): 53.2% of them were classified as a priori eligible (Fig.2) and w100 have undergone baseline visit (screening failure rate<9%). Of them, 22.4% have been diagnosed as MCI, 49.3% as SCD+ (fulfilling >3 SCD+ features) and 28.3% as SCD. More than half (58.2%) of these participants comply with eligibility criteria with ongoing studies at BBRC (Fig.3). Conclusions: We have established a web-based registry that is proving very useful to recruit SCD+ or MCI individuals, more than half of which are suited for secondary prevention interventions.
