Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the correlation between ambulatory blood pressure variability and the progression of subjective cognitive decline (SCD).Methods:In this prospective observational study, the overall sampling method was used to continuously select 100 patients with SCD in the Department of Neurology, Changshu First People′s Hospital and Changshu Xinzhuang People′s Hospital from January 1 2016 to June 30 2017. The baseline demographic characteristics of the patients were collected. The Chinese version of SCD-Q9 questionnaire was used to self-evaluate SCD, and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA) was used to evaluate objective cognitive impairment. All patients received 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, and 24 h systolic coefficient of variation (SCV) and diastolic coefficient of variation (DCV) were calculated. The follow-up period was 4 years after the first visit, and the MoCA scale was evaluated once a year. Finally, 83 patients completed the follow-up and were included in this study. According to the MoCA score at the end of follow-up (<26 or ≥26), the patients were divided into progression group (39 cases) and non-progression group (44 cases). The difference of MoCA score between baseline and last follow-up was calculated in the progression group. The difference in demographic characteristics between the two groups was compared with χ2 test. The difference of 24 h SCV and 24 h DCV between the two groups were compared by rank sum test. The correlation between 24 h SCV and MoCA score difference or SCD-Q9 score in the progression group were tested by multiple linear regression analysis. Results:The 4-year progression rate of SCD patients was 46.99% (39/83). There was no significant differences in baseline age, gender, education level, medical history, smoking history, SCD-Q9 score and MoCA score between the progressive group and the non-progressive group (all P>0.05). The 24 h SCV in the progressive group was significantly higher than that in the non-progressive group [13.4% (9.9%, 15.6%) vs 10.9% (9.7%, 12.7%), U=594.50, P=0.016]. There was no significant difference in 24 h DCV between the two groups ( P>0.05). In progressive group, the 24 h SCV was negatively correlated with MoCA score difference ( r=-0.368, P=0.021). Conclusion:There is a correlation between ambulatory blood pressure variability and SCD progression, high 24 h SCV may be one of the factors of SCD progression and has certain predictive value.
