title: [Factors associated with cognitive deterioration in an urban population. ANCO project].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To analyse the prevalence of cognitive deterioration (CD) in the over-60s of the city of Córdoba not in institutions and to evaluate its relationship with social, demographic and health variables.
  
  
  METHODS
  A crossover study of prevalence.
  
  
  METHODS
  The city of Córdoba.
  
  
  METHODS
  Population over 60 years old living at home (N = 49,674), from which a sample of 1,103 people was extracted.
  
  
  METHODS
  The Spanish-language version of the multidimensional OARS-MFAQ questionnaire was filled in. This included the Pfeiffer cognitive evaluation test.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Reply rate was 86.8%. 3.7% had possible moderate-severe CD. People with CD also used more services (basically to help with DA) and had a perception of needing more services which they were not receiving at present.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The prevalence of possible cognitive deterioration in the population under analysis is similar to that found in other studies in our country. They confirm that age and lack of schooling are the factors most closely linked to this deterioration.
