Table 2 Descriptives of neuropsychological tests. MOCA = Montreal cognitive assessment; MMSE = Mini mental state examination; CVLT = California verbal learning test; TMT = Trail making test; word = word reading; color = color naming; color-word = color-word interference; LPS = Leistungspruefsystem; BTA = brief test of attention; RWT = Regensburger Wortfluessigkeitstest; BDI: Beck’s depression index; PR = percentile rank. Values are presented as mean ± SD (number of subjects).
