Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of malnutrition on cognitive function of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) in stable period.Methods According to score of Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) > 17 points and ≤ 17 points,120 patients with stable COPD were divided into control group and malnutrition group.The mini-mental stat examination (MMSE) was used to detect the cognitive function of patients,and oxygen saturation,pulmonary function,serum NSE and S-100β were detected as well.Results Compared with the control group,the disease course of the malnutrition group was longer,and measured value to expected value of the first second forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and blood oxygen saturation were significantly lower,but there were no significant differences in the age and education level between the two groups (P > 0.05).There were significant differences in total score,directive force,delayed memory,attention and calculating ability,recollection ability,language between two groups (P < 0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that the MMSE score was mainly related to age,education,measured value to expected value of FEV1,blood oxygen saturation,and MNA score.Both NSE and S-100β protein were negatively correlated with MMSE score (r =-0.365、-0.441,P < 0.05).Conclusion Malnutrition can aggravate the cognitive impairment of COPD patients in stable stage.Serum S-100β and NSE levels may be used as predictors for cognitive impairment in COPD patients with malnutrition.
