The association of disproportionately enlarged subarachnoid space hydrocephalus with cognitive deficit in a general population: the Ohasama study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:17061. [PMID: 34426609 PMCID: PMC8382837 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-95961-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Disproportionately enlarged subarachnoid space hydrocephalus (DESH) is the characteristic feature of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus. We aimed to characterize the prevalence, development, and association of DESH to cognitive deficit in a large population. We reviewed the data of 1384 subjects eligible for the present study among 1590 participants who underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the Ohasama Study, a population-based study in Ohasama, Japan. The participants with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score < = 25 were assumed to have cognitive deficit and DESH was evaluated by reviewing the MRIs. We assessed the association between DESH, Evans index (EI), and cognitive deficit using multivariate logistic regression models adjusted for relevant confounders. Furthermore, we evaluated the new development of DESH and the deterioration of cognitive function in the participants with DESH. There were nine participants with DESH (0.65%), seven of whom showed cognitive deficit. DESH was significantly associated with cognitive deficit in multivariate regression analyses (odds ratio; 8.50 [95% confidence interval: 1.61–44.88]). In the 669 participants who underwent follow-up MRI, we found four participants newly presenting with DESH; the development of DESH was observed before/after the presence of EI > 0.3. We also found two participants with existing DESH showing no remarkable worsening in MMSE and EI. The present study demonstrated a positive association between the presence of DESH and cognitive deficit. DESH can develop independently of EI > 0.3, and ventricular enlargement in combination with DESH may be an important factor in the worsening of cognitive deficit.

Abstract
Introduction. It is already known and accepted that cerebrovascular disease onset has a temporal variation pattern, the best documented being the circadian variation pattern, with a frequency peak in the morning and a second lower peak during afternoon. The impact of this circadian variation on post-stroke cognitive status has been little studied.
Materials and method. The study included a cohort of 63 patients with ischemic stroke, admitted to the Neurology Departments I and II of the Rehabilitation Hospital in Cluj-Napoca between 1 June 2008 and 1 June 2009, who were evaluated for their cognitive status over 2 years, during 5 successive visits. The onset time of ischemic stroke was assigned to one of the six-hour intervals: 00.01-06.00 (night), 06.01-12.00 (morning), 12.01-18.00 (afternoon), and 18.01-24.00 (evening). Statistical analysis was performed using Excel Microsoft, descriptive and ANOVA test.
Results and conclusions. The circadian variation pattern of stroke onset is confirming in our study the known incidence pattern of ischemic stroke, with the morning peak. There are differences in the evolution during dynamics of the MMSE score depending on the time of the day when stroke occurs. Patients with stroke onset during the night have seems to have a less favorable cognitive evolution in the second year after ischemic stroke compared to patients with stroke onset during the other intervals of the day.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Silent brain infarction (SBI) may be associated with cognitive decline in the general population. We systematically reviewed prior literature on: (1) SBI and cognition cross-sectionally; (2) baseline SBI and future cognitive decline and risk for cognitive disorders including dementia, and (3) incident SBI and the emergence of cognitive decline or cognitive disorders. METHODS The MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were searched for relevant studies. Data were independently extracted by two reviewers. Quality was assessed using the Newcastle Ottawa Scale. Data were pooled using a random effects model when more than two comparable estimates were found. RESULTS Thirty relevant studies were identified: 17 had a cross-sectional design, 10 evaluated the association of baseline SBI with future cognitive decline, and 5 evaluated the association of incident SBI with cognitive decline. Most cross-sectional studies reported lower cognitive performance in persons with SBI. The pooled risk for incident dementia in persons with SBI was 1.48 (95% CI 1.12-1.97), but there was significant heterogeneity (p = 0.009); removing one outlier eliminated the heterogeneity (p = 0.53), giving a lower but still significant estimate (hazard ratio 1.27, 95% CI 1.06-1.51). The pooled risk for incident MCI was not increased in persons with SBI (hazard ratio 0.83, 95% CI 0.40 to 1.72), but there was significant heterogeneity (p < 0.001). The appearance of new SBI was associated with steeper rate of cognitive decline and the appearance of dementia. CONCLUSIONS SBI are associated with worse cognition and increased risk for dementia. More standardization of cognitive assessment methods would facilitate future cross-study comparisons.

Lacunar Infarcts Rather than White Matter Hyperintensity as a Predictor of Future Higher Level Functional Decline: The Ohasama Study. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2016; 26:376-384. [PMID: 28029606 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2016.09.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2016] [Revised: 09/16/2016] [Accepted: 09/22/2016] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the associations between silent cerebrovascular lesions, characterized by lacunar infarcts and white matter hyperintensity, and future decline in higher level functional capacity in older community-dwelling adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS For this observational study, we selected individuals from the general population of Ohasama, a rural Japanese community. Three hundred thirty-one participants who were free of functional decline at baseline and who were at least 60 years old underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging and answered a questionnaire on higher level functional capacity derived from the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology Index of Competence. Weassessed the relationship between silent cerebrovascular lesions with a decline in higher level functional capacity at 7 years using multiple logistic regression analysis adjusted for possible confounding factors. RESULTS During the follow-up, 22.1% reported declines in higher level functional capacity. After adjustment for putative confounding factors, the presence of silent cerebrovascular lesions (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], 2.10 [1.05-4.21]) and both lacunar infarcts (2.04 [1.05-3.95]) and white matter hyperintensity (2.02 [1.02-3.95]) was significantly associated with the risk of functional decline at 7-year follow-up. In subscale analysis, specifically lacunar infarcts were strongly associated with the future risk of decline in intellectual activity (3.16 [1.27-7.84]). CONCLUSION Silent cerebrovascular lesions are associated with future risk of decline in higher level functional capacity. Appropriate management of health risk factors to prevent silent cerebrovascular lesions may prevent higher level functional decline in the elderly population.
