Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the modified 25-item Resilience Scale (RS-25) in older adults post-hip fracture using Rasch analysis. Methods: This was a descriptive study using baseline data from the Seventh Baltimore Hip Studies (BHS-7). There were 339 hip fracture patients included in this analysis. Results: Findings suggest there was support for reliability of the measure based on person and item separation index. The INFIT and OUTFIT statistics for testing validity were all in the acceptable range indicating that each item on the modified RS-25 fits the appropriate concept. There was no evidence of Differential Item Functioning (DIF) between genders. Conclusions: This study demonstrated evidence that the modified RS-25 is a reliable and valid measure to evaluate resilience among older adults post-hip fracture and therefore can be used in this population in clinical practice and research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis (HD) often have cognitive deficits. However, there are few studies that have examined the neuropsychological impairments of patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD). METHODS Executive functions, processing speed and verbal memory were assessed in 27 PD patients, 42 HD patients, and 42 healthy participants (HP). Systolic blood pressure and total time on renal replacement therapy (RRT) were controlled statistically. Associations between performance and clinical factors were analyzed using correlations and multiple regression. RESULTS The DP group showed better performance compared to the HD group in verbal fluency, working memory, cognitive flexibility, planning and decision making. The DP group showed worse execution than the HP group in verbal inhibition and memory. Executive function scores were positively associated with total months on PD, total months on RRT, total months on HD, albumin, total cholesterol, and phosphorus, and negatively with ferritin. CONCLUSION Global executive functioning was more optimal in PD patients than in HD patients. The results show the positive effect of PD on executive functions, which must be taken into account when choosing the TRS. The associations observed between biochemical factors and performance show the importance of maintaining an adequate nutritional status in these patients.

Content Validity Assessment of the Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire in CKD Using Qualitative Methods. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:8654. [PMID: 35886505 PMCID: PMC9319998 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19148654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Revised Illness Perception Questionnaire (IPQ-R) measures individuals' unique perceptions of their illness. While psychometric properties of the IPQ-R have been demonstrated in many disease populations, its content validity has not been extensively studied in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD). Unique features of CKD (e.g., few symptoms in early stages) may impact the measurement of illness perceptions. The purpose of this study was to explore the IPQ-R content validity in a sample of CKD patients. METHODS Thirty-one participants completed the IPQ-R and were interviewed regarding their subscale scores (timeline, consequences, personal control, treatment control, coherence, cyclical, and emotions). Participants' agreement with their scores was tallied and assessed qualitatively for themes related to the content validity of the measure. RESULTS Individual participant agreement with their subscale scores averaged 79% (range: 29-100%). Subscale agreement varied: timeline (100%), consequences, coherence, and emotion (83% each), cyclical (75%), personal control (65%), and treatment control (64%). A qualitative exploration of disagreement responses revealed concerns with the relevance and comprehensibility of personal control and treatment control. CONCLUSIONS Some IPQ-R subscales may pose content validity concerns in the non-dialysis CKD population. Item modification for comprehensibility (personal control) and relevance (treatment control) should be considered. Future studies should explore the impact of a patient's symptom experience on IPQ-R validity, especially in populations like CKD with a higher proportion of asymptomatic patients.

Abstract
Spatial skills decline in older adults, particularly those with cognitive challenges, leaving them less confident to navigate their environment. Spatial training has been shown to help with this decline and engaging in music has benefitted the spatial skills of musicians. A paucity of research explores ways that music could serve as spatial training for older adults. This study explored music classes as spatial training for older adults in three ways: 1) Success rates staying spatially oriented on the instrument. 2.) Ability to read written music. 3.) Outcomes on a spatial orientation test taken pre- and post-intervention. We developed and tested a six-week marimba class that targeted spatial training principles for older adults with predementia or early dementia. We assessed the spatial skills with the Orientation Test from the Test of Visual Perceptual Skills pre- and post-intervention. Their scores increased an average of 0.71, a clinically meaningful change (d = 0.3). Participants also demonstrated high frequencies of remaining oriented on the instrument, and more participants self-selected to read music without notes (p < 0.01) over the course of the intervention. With future research, music-based training may be one way to support spatial skills during cognitive decline.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the cognitive function in dialysis patients over 60 years old and identify the contributing factors. METHODS A group of elderly dialysis patients in the Department of Nephrology, Pan'an People's Hospital between March 2015 and June 2018 were chosen as the subjects for this study. Patients were divided into two groups, those with cognitive impairment and those with normal cognitive function. Results of their Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores, Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT), Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Digit Span subtest (WDMS), and Stanford Diagnostic Math Test (SDMT) were reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS Among the 110 elderly dialysis patients, 75 patients (68.18%) showed different levels of damage to their cognitive function. Their assessment scores on MoCA (total), MoCA subtests: visuospatial/executive, naming, attention, language, delayed recall, abstraction and orientation, COWAT (total), COWAT1, COWAT2, COWAT3, WMDS-Backward, and SDMT are significantly lower than patients with normal cognitive abilities (p < 0.05). Further analysis showed that the highest percentage (72.00%) of patients had impairment with visuospatial/executive function; and, of the 75 cognitive impaired patients, 37.33% showed cognitive damage in two MoCA subtests simultaneously. Patients with and without cognitive impairment showed a significant (p < 0.05) difference on factors including age, education level, employment status, financial situation, dialysis vintage, serum albumin, and hemoglobin. CONCLUSION Elderly patients on dialysis have a higher risk of becoming cognitive impaired. The cognitive impairment in elderly dialysis patients was significantly associated with age, dialysis vintage, and levels of serum albumin and hemoglobin.

Abstract
Aging causes perseveration (difficulty to switch between actions) in motor and cognitive tasks, suggesting that the same neural processes could govern these abilities in older adults. To test this, we evaluated the relation between independently measured motor and cognitive perseveration in young (21.4 ± 3.7 y/o) and older participants (76.5 ± 2.9 y/o). Motor perseveration was measured with a locomotor task in which participants had to transition between distinct walking patterns. Cognitive perseveration was measured with a card matching task in which participants had to switch between distinct matching rules. We found that perseveration in the cognitive and motor domains were positively related in older, but not younger individuals, such that participants exhibiting greater perseveration in the motor task also perseverated more in the cognitive task. Additionally, exposure reduces motor perseveration: older adults who had practiced the motor task could transition between walking patterns as proficiently as naïve, young individuals. Our results suggest an overlap in neural processes governing cognitive and motor perseveration with aging and that exposure can counteract the age-related motor perseveration.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) have a higher prevalence of cognitive impairment and inferior cognitive performance than the general population, and those with cognitive impairment are at higher risk of death than those without cognitive impairment. Having diabetes has been associated with an increased risk of cognitive decline in end-stage kidney disease patients treated with peritoneal dialysis or kidney transplant. However, these findings may not extend to the hemodialysis population. Thus, we aim to investigate the relationship between having diabetes and cognitive function in MHD patients. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 203 patients treated with MHD from two blood purification centers were enrolled as subjects. The Chinese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) was utilized to assess cognitive function. RESULTS MHD patients with diabetes had a significantly higher prevalence of global cognitive impairment and inferior performance in global cognition, visuospatial/executive function, naming, language, abstraction and orientation tasks compared with those without diabetes. According to the multiple linear analyses, having diabetes was significantly associated with lower global cognitive function, naming, and language scores, with β coefficients and 95% CIs of -1.30 [ -2.59, -0.01], -0.25 [-0.47, -0.02], and -0.32 [-0.58, -0.07], respectively (all P < 0.05). Having diabetes could not independently predict an increased risk of global cognitive impairment. CONCLUSIONS In MHD patients, having diabetes is significantly associated with lower cognitive function scores. Medical staff should evaluate early and focus on the decline of cognitive function in MHD patients with diabetes, in order to achieve early diagnosis and early intervention.

Abstract
Background:Research on the association between cognitive impairment (CI) and peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis is limited. Therefore, we investigated whether CI contributed to the risk of PD-related peritonitis.Methods:This prospective cohort study enrolled 458 patients from 5 PD centers between 1 March 2013, and 30 November 2013, and continued until 31 May 2016. We used the Modified Mini-Mental State Examination (3MS) to assess general cognition, the Trail-Making Test to assess executive function, and subtests of the Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status to assess immediate and delayed memory, visuospatial skills, and language ability. Patients were assigned to CI and non-CI groups based on their 3MS scores. The first episode of peritonitis was the primary endpoint event. Treatment failure of peritonitis was defined as peritonitis-associated death or transfer to hemodialysis. We used competing risk models to analyze the association between CI and the risk of peritonitis. The association of CI with treatment failure after peritonitis was analyzed using logistic regression models.Results:Ninety-four first episodes of peritonitis were recorded during a median follow-up of 31.4 months, 18.1% of which led to treatment failure. No significant group differences were observed for the occurrence, distribution of pathogenic bacteria, or outcomes of first-episode peritonitis. Immediate memory dysfunction was independently associated with a higher risk of PD-related peritonitis (hazard ratio [HR] 1.736, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.064 - 2.834, p < 0.05), adjusting for confounders.Conclusions:Immediate memory dysfunction was a significant, independent predictor of PD-related peritonitis. Neither general nor specific domains of CI predicted treatment failure of peritonitis.

Abstract
Background Diabetes and retinopathy have been considered as risk factors of cognitive impairment (CI) in previous studies. We investigated both of these two factors and their relationship with global and specific cognitive functions in end stage renal disease patients under peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods In this multicenter cross-sectional study, 424 clinically stable patients were enrolled from 5 PD units, who performed PD for at least three months and completed fundoscopy examination if they had diabetes. Global cognitive function was measured using the Modified Mini-Mental State Examination (3MS), Trail-Making Test forms A and B for executive function, and subtests of the Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status for immediate and delayed memory, visuospatial skills, and language ability. Results PD Patients with DM and Retinopathy had significantly higher prevalence of CI, executive dysfunction, impaired immediate memory and visuospatial skill, compared with patients in non-DM group. By multivariate logistic regression analyses, DM and retinopathy rather than DM only were significantly associated with increased risk for CI, executive dysfunction, impaired immediate memory and visuospatial skill, odds ratios(ORs) and 95% confidence intervals were 2.09[1.11,3.92], 2.89[1.55,5.37], 2.16 [1.15,4.06] and 2.37[1.32,4.22], respectively (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Diabetic PD patients with retinopathy were at two times risk for overall cognitive impairment, executive dysfunction, impaired immediate memory and visuospatial skill as compared to non-diabetic PD patients.
