Introduction: Research diagnostic criteria for neurodegenerative disorders (NDD) allow more precise patient diagnosis and management and facilitate research. Objectives: The main objective of this study is to find the empirical and authoritative classification of neuropsychiatric syndromes in neurocognitive disorders. Material and methods: This descriptive study was conducted in University of Lahore, Lahore during 2021 to 2022 with the permission of ethical committee of hospital.
