Two independent, patient-level diagnostic interventional studies enrolled elderly participants (>60 years) with suspected cognitive decline. Oxygenation differences in the orbitofrontal cortex were assessed alongside clinical and biomarker measures including amyloid PET, MRI, and neuropsychological testing.

All volunteers were assessed by measuring the oxygenation difference in the orbitofrontal cortex using an open-label olfactory-stimulated functional near-infrared spectroscopy approach, medical interview, amyloid positron emission tomography, brain magnetic resonance imaging, Mini-Mental State Examination, and Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery.  \nResults In total, 97 (original trial) and 36 (additional trial) elderly volunteers with suspected decline in cognitive function met the eligibility criteria. The statistical model reported classification accuracies of 87 . 3% in patients with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease in internal validation (original trial) but 63. 9% in external validation (additional trial) . The machine learning algorithm achieved 92 . 5% accuracy with the internal validation data and 82. 5% accuracy with the external validation data. For the diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment, machine learning performed better than statistical methods with internal (86 .0% versus 85. 2%) and external validation data (85 .4% versus 68.8%) . Interpretation In two independent trials, machine learning models using olfactory-stimulated oxygenation differences in the orbitofrontal cortex were superior in diagnosing mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease  \n†Jaewon Kim and Hayeon Lee are the first authors.  \n*Correspondence: Jae Gwan Kim [jaekim@gist.ac.kr](jaekim@gist.ac.kr)[ ](jaekim@gist.ac.kr)Dong Keon Yon[yonkkang@gmail.com](yonkkang@gmail.com)  \nFull list of author information is available at the end of the article  \n© The Author(s) 2023.
