The socio-demographics factors are recognized in medical literature as risk factors for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and its conversion in dementia. This study identifies the demographics risk factors in conversion of the MCI patients in dementia. The study was effectuated in Sibiu. 365 patients with MCI over 65 years were evaluated for 4 years. In this period we identified the total rate of conversion in dementia being 43.8%, the rate of conversion in Alzheimer dementia (AD) being 18.9%, the rate of conversion in Vascular dementia (VD) being 11.8% and in mixed dementia (MD) 13.1%.
