Abstract: The invention thus pertains to the use of a composition comprising: (a) uridine or uridine phosphate; and (b) docosahexaenoic acid and/or eicosapentaenoic acid, for improving memory and/or the treatment or prevention of impaired memory function, in a subject with a mini-mental state examination of 24-26, wherein said composition is enterally administered to the subject. In the MMSE test, any score of 27 or higher (out of 30) is effectively normal. In the patients with dementia, 20-26 indicates mild dementia, 10-19 moderate dementia, and below 10 severe dementia. It was the present inventors' belief that within the group of 20-26, the memory impairment in the sub-group of 24-26 may even be reversible, as the pathological pathways have just started to develop. In this group of subjects the pathological pathways have just started to develop. Clinical studies show excellent results for this subgroup.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition for use in the treatment or prevention of recognition dysfunction, and/or for improving recognition, in a (prodromal) Alzheimer's patient, in particular in a drug-naive (prodromal) Alzheimer's patient, more particularly in a subject with a mini-mental state examination of 20-30.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising: (i) one or more of uridine and cytidine, or salts, phosphates, acyl derivatives or esters thereof; and (ii) a lipid fraction comprising at least one of docosahexaenoic acid (22:6; DHA), eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5; EPA) and docosapentaenoic acid (22:5; DPA), or esters thereof, for use in the improvement of the composite NTB score. The invention also provides an improved NTB method comprising an optimized set of individualized tests, in particular for a (prodromal or mild) Alzheimer's or dementia patient.
