Changes in measures of cognitive function in patients with end-stage kidney disease on dialysis and the effect of dialysis vintage: A longitudinal cohort study.

<h4>Introduction</h4>Prevalence of cognitive impairment increases with worsening severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and majority of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients on dialysis have cognitive impairment. Trends of cognitive function (CF) in this population are less well kno...

We repeated tests of CF and depression ≥ 1-year after baseline in both groups and compared change scores in CF and depression between ESKD/ CKD sub-groups. Among ESKD patients we compared change scores between patients with dialysis vintage of <1-year and >1-year. Analysis of covariance was used to adjust for the effect of age on these change scores.<h4>Results</h4>At baseline (N = 211), compared to CKD (N = 108), ESKD (N = 103) patients had significantly worse CF based on 3MS and TMT-A & B scores, and depression scores. On follow-up (N = 160) 3MS scores, especially the memory subscale significantly improved in ESKD, but worsened in CKD, with no significant changes in TMT A /TMT-B, or depression scores after adjusting for age. Among ESKD patients, 3MS, especially memory subscale improved in patients with dialysis vintage <1-year compared to >1-year. The 51 patients who discontinued after baseline assessment had worse baseline CF scores suggesting differential attrition.<h4>Conclusion</h4>Though baseline cognitive scores were worse in ESKD patients on dialysis, compared to CKD, their 3MS, especially memory subscale improved on follow-up. Among ESKD patients, the improvement was significant only in patients who have been on dialysis for less than one-year which may indicate a beneficial effect of clearance of uraemic toxins.
