    Summary · context
    The absence of cases of aMCI conversion to dementia in the treated patients for 2.5 years of observation can serve as confirmation of a disease-modifying effect in Cerebrolysin.
    Summary · context
    The cohort included 88 first-degree relatives of BA patients with aMCI syndrome aged 50 to 82 years (mean age 65.0±9.9 years) of which 46 people received course therapy with Cerebrolysin and 42 people were not treated.
