Abstract:
Objective:To compare the cognitive functions in patients with depressive disorder,hyperlipidemia disorder,and comorbid both of the disorders.Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed in age,gender and education year matched patients with depressive disorder (n =51)(according to the ICD-10),hypedipidemia(n =38) (according to the Chinese adult lipid guideline),comorbid both of the disorders(n =40) and normal controls (n =56) were recruited in this study.All subjects received a battery of neuropsychological tests to access the anxiety and depression symptoms and cognitive function.Results:The scores of MoCA were lower in the patients with comorbid both disorders and patients with depression than patients with hypedipidemia [(24 ± 3),(24 ± 4)vs.(26 ± 3),Ps <0.05],and were lower in patients with depression than in normal controls(25 ±3),P <0.05.Stroop color test amends numbers were higher in patients with comorbid disorder than in the other three groups (Ps <0.05).The scores of immediate and delayed logical memory were higher in patients with hyperlipidemia than in other three groups (Ps <0.05).The total number of words in verbal fluency test were lower in patients with comorbid disorders and patients with depression than in patients with hyperlipidemia (Ps <0.05).Wisconsin card sorting test category completes were lower in patients with comorbid disorders and patients with depression than in patients with hyperlipidemia and normal controls (Ps < 0.05).The scores of persistent errors were higher in patients with comorbid disorders and patients with depression than in patients with hyperlipidemia and normal controls (Ps <0.05).Conclusion:In this study,patients with depressive disorder have impairment of cognitive function,while hyperlipidemia may probably do not impair cognitive function.
