Effects of Anosognosia on Perceived Stress and Cortisol Levels in Alzheimer’s Disease

Figure 1

Scores on anosognosia for dementia, anosognosia for perceived stress, and cortisol levels in normal elderly, individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, newly diagnosed, and long-lasting Alzheimer’s disease patients. These graphs represent the scores on anosognosia for dementia (ANO), anosognosia for perceived stress (PSS), and cortisol levels (CORT, in μg/dL) in 21 normal elderly (NE, black bars), 20 individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI, dark grey bars), 12 newly diagnosed (new AD, light grey bars), and 17 long-lasting (old AD, white bars) Alzheimer’s disease patients.
