Method of measurement: This outcome will be measured using standard Mini–Mental State Examination (MMSE) test. MMSE is the most common test applied to assess cognitive impairment. MMSE has been translated into Persian and validated for Iranians. Implementing MMSE will be accomplished by a neurologist in Brain and Cognition Clinic in Iran University of Medical Sciences at the beginning of the study. At the end of three months, MMSE will be retaken from the participants by the same neurologist at the same location.;Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination (ACE_R) test score.
