There is disagreement over the definitions and criteria used to delineate various disorders and whether some of these conditions should be classified as ...
Mild cognitive impairment has been relisted in both DSM-5 and ICD-11 as "mild neurocognitive disorders", i.e. milder forms of the major neurocognitive disorder (dementia) subtypes. [46] Kynurenine is a metabolite of tryptophan that regulates microbiome signaling, immune cell response, and neuronal excitation.
The main principle distinguishing neurocognitive disorders from mood disorders and other psychiatric conditions that involve a cognitive component (i.e. increased lapses in memory noted by patients with depression) is that cognitive decline is the "defining characteristic" of the disorder.

[7] The definition of MCI continues to evolve.
