Association Between Sleep Disorders and Cognitive Impairment in Middle Age and Older Adult Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Objective: The aims of the current study were to (1) explore the features of overall poor sleep and specific sleep disorders in Chinese middle age and older adult hemodialysis patients; (2) examine the association between sleep disorders and cognitive impairment (CI) in middle age and older patients undergoing hemodialysis in China. Methods: Data of patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were collected from the prospective cohort study of CI in Chinese patients undergoing hemodialysis (Registered in Clinical Trials.gov, ID: NCT03251573). We included 613 patients (mean age = 63.7; SD = 7.8) in this study. We assessed sleep conditions using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire and cognitive function by the Chinese Beijing version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-BJ) scale. Then the association between sleep disorders and CI was evaluated using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: The prevalence of sleep disorders in this group of 613 hemodialysis patients was 77.0%. Patients with CI were more inclined to have sleep disorders in specific aspects of sleep latency, habitual sleep efficiency, sleep disturbances, and daytime dysfunction (p < 0.05). In multivariate logistic regression analyses, every 1-point increase in global PSQI score was associated with a 1.2-fold increased risk of CI (adjusted OR = 1.201; 95%CI = 1.123-1.284, p < 0.001). For each specific PSQI, every 1-point increase in sleep disturbances score was associated with a 2.6-fold increased risk of CI (adjusted OR = 2.624; 95%CI = 1.891-3.640, p < 0.001), and every 1-point increase in daytime dysfunction score was associated with a 3.7-fold increased risk of CI (adjusted OR = 3.709; 95%CI = 2.653-5.184, p < 0.001), whereas every 1-point increase in sleep duration score was associated with a decreased risk of CI (adjusted OR = 0.600; 95%CI = 0.434-0.830, p = 0.002). Conclusion: Poor sleep quality especially sleep disturbances, daytime dysfunction, and long sleep duration are associated with CI in middle age and older adult hemodialysis patients. Thus, the early detection of sleep disorders may help identify patients with cognitive impairment among hemodialysis individuals.
