Background
Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic(CKM) syndrome is a prevalent health concern, while its impact on cognitive function has not been extensively studied.
Methods
We conducted a prospective analysis with Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study data. CKM risk was assessed with the PREVENTTM Calculator and cognitive function was evaluated using z score from different cognitive function tests at Visit 2 and Visit 4. Dementia cases were identified through a combination of assessments and hospital records, with analyses adjusted for demographics and vascular risks during Visit 5.
Results
Our study included 10,960 participants with a mean age of 56.9±5.7 years. A robust inverse relationship was observed between cognitive function and CKM risk, with the inflection point at 6.381% CKM risk for the global z score. The risk of dementia increased with higher CKM risk (HR 1.14, 95% CI 1.13-1.16). Notably, male participants exhibited a comparatively reduced risk of dementia (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.63-0.82). A subsequent sensitivity analysis, utilizing baseline data from Visit 4 (n=4644), confirmed these results.
Conclusion
Our findings indicate a significant link between CKM risk and cognitive decline, suggesting the importance of CKM syndrome management in preventing cognitive impairment and dementia.
