Cognitive impairment associated with increased mortality rate in patients with heart failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background:Recent systematic review and meta-analysis showed that the prevalence of cognitive impairment was significantly increased in patients with heart failure (HF) when compared to the general population. However, the effect of cognitive impairment on cardiovascular outcome in this population is still unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess whether cognitive impairment associated with worse outcome in patients with HF. Methods:We comprehensively searched the databases of MEDLINE and EMBASE from inception to October 2018. Included studies were published cohort (prospective or retrospective) or randomized control trials that evaluate the effect of cognitive impairment mortality in HF patients. Data from each study were combined using the random-effects, generic inverse variance method of DerSimonian and Laird to calculate pooled hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results:Eight studies were included in the analysis involving 3318 participants (951 participants had cognitive impairment). In a random-effects model, our analysis demonstrated that cognitive impairment significantly increased the risk of mortality in HF patients (pooled HR?=?1.64, 95% CI?=?1.42-1.88, I2?=?0.0%, p?

Project description:Aims/hypothesisAccumulating evidence suggests an association between coronary heart disease and risk for cognitive impairment or dementia, but no study has systematically reviewed this association. Therefore, we summarized the available evidence on the association between coronary heart disease and risk for cognitive impairment or dementia.MethodsMedline, Embase, PsycINFO, and CINAHL were searched for all publications until 8th January 2016. Articles were included if they fulfilled the inclusion criteria: (1) myocardial infarction, angina pectoris or coronary heart disease (combination of both) as predictor variable; (2) cognition, cognitive impairment or dementia as outcome; (3) population-based study; (4) prospective (≥1 year follow-up), cross-sectional or case-control study design; (5) ≥100 participants; and (6) aged ≥45 years. Reference lists of publications and secondary literature were hand-searched for possible missing articles. Two reviewers independently screened all abstracts and extracted information from potential relevant full-text articles using a standardized data collection form. Study quality was assessed with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We pooled estimates from the most fully adjusted model using random-effects meta-analysis.ResultsWe identified 6,132 abstracts, of which 24 studies were included. A meta-analysis of 10 prospective cohort studies showed that coronary heart disease was associated with increased risk of cognitive impairment or dementia (OR = 1.45, 95%CI = 1.21-1.74, p<0.001). Between-study heterogeneity was low (I2 = 25.7%, 95%CI = 0-64, p = 0.207). Similar significant associations were found in separate meta-analyses of prospective cohort studies for the individual predictors (myocardial infarction, angina pectoris). In contrast, meta-analyses of cross-sectional and case-control studies were inconclusive.Conclusion/interpretationThis meta-analysis suggests that coronary heart disease is prospectively associated with increased odds of developing cognitive impairment or dementia. Given the projected worldwide increase in the number of people affected by coronary heart disease and dementia, insight into causal mechanisms or common pathways underlying the heart-brain connection is needed.
