Abstract:
Objective To investigate the incidence of motoric cognitive risk(MCR)syndrome and declines in both motor and cognitive functions in elderly patients with enlarged perivascular spaces(EPVS).Methods A total of 113 patients(≥60 years old)with EPVS identified by head MRI admitted to our department from March 1 to November 30,2023 were consecutively recrui-ted,and according to having MCR syndrome or not,they were divided into MCR group(44 cases)and non-MCR group(69 cases).Cognitive function and motor function were assessed with aid of Montreal Cognitive Scale(MoCA),Simple Mental State Examination Scale(MMSE),trail making test,and motor function assessments,including Tinetti Balance and Gait Scale,Short Physical Performance Battery(SPPB),8-meter walk,Timed up and Go test(TUGT),walking and contin-uous subtraction task(WSS),walking and semantic fluency task(WSF),and TUGT and serial subtraction task(TUGSS).The motor and cognitive functions were compared between the two groups,and the risk factors related to MCR syndrome in EPVS patients were analyzed by multi-variate logistic regression.Results Compared with the non-MCR group,the MCR group had low-er MoCA score,total SPPB score,8-meter walk speed,and longer times of TMT-A,TMT-B,WSS,WSF and TUGSS(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that in Model 1(including variables with differences in univariate analysis),MoCA score,8-meter walk speed,and TUGSS time were independent risk factors for MCR syndrome in EPVS patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);in Model 2(adjusting for age,sex,education level,and comorbidities),MoCA score(OR=0.621,95％CI:0.432-0.929,P=0.010),8-meter walk speed(OR=1.332,95％CI:1.115-1.591,P=0.002),and TUGSS time(OR=0.393,95％CI:0.232-0.665,P=0.001)re-mained independent risk factors for MCR syndrome in EPVS patients.Conclusion Among elderly EPVS patients,those with MCR syndrome show significantly worse cognitive and motor function compared to those without.MoCA score,8-meter walk speed,and TUGSS time are related factors for MCR occurrence in EPVS patients.
