Vale salientar que o ACE-R possui uma boa correlação com a Escala de Avaliação Clínica da Demência (CDR), servindo de auxílio-diagnóstico para demência avançada a comprometimento cognitivo leve (César, Yassuda, Porto, Brucki, & Nitrini, 2017), sendo, portanto, um instrumento de grande relevância.…”
