BACKGROUND
The Brief International Cognitive Assessment for Multiple Sclerosis (BICAMS) has been recently developed as a brief, practical, and feasible tool for cognitive impairment in multiple sclerosis (MS).
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to provide continuous and discrete normative values for the BICAMS in the Brazilian context.
METHODS
Normatization was achieved using six hundred and one healthy controls from the community assessed at five Brazilian geopolitical regions.
RESULTS
Mean raw scores, T scores, percentiles, and Z scores for each BICAMS measure are provided, stratified by age and educational level. Regression-based norms were provided by converting raw scores to scaled scores, which were regressed on age, gender, and education, yielding equations that can be used to calculate the predicted scores. Regression analyses revealed that age, gender, and education significantly influenced test results, as in previous studies.
CONCLUSIONS
The normative data of the BICAMS to the Brazilian context presented good representativeness, improving its use in daily clinical practice.
背景
Brief International Cognitive Assessment for Multiple Sclerosis（BICAMS）最近被开发为一种用于多发性硬化症（MS）认知障碍的简短、实用且可行的工具。
目的
本研究旨在为巴西的 BICAMS 提供连续和离散的正常值。
方法
使用来自巴西五个地理区域的 601 名社区健康对照者进行了规范化。
结果
提供了每个 BICAMS 测量的原始分数、T 分数、百分位数和 Z 分数，按年龄和教育程度分层。通过将原始分数转换为量表分数来提供基于回归的正常值，然后将量表分数回归到年龄、性别和教育上，得出可以用来计算预测分数的方程。回归分析表明，年龄、性别和教育显著影响了测试结果，这与之前的研究一致。
结论
巴西背景下的 BICAMS 正常值具有良好的代表性，这提高了它在日常临床实践中的使用。
