The relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) and post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is controversial. This study evaluated the association of different SUA levels in the normal range and PSCI at 3 months.Patients and Methods: A total of 1523 patients with ischemic stroke/TIA were recruited from the Impairment of Cognition and Sleep (ICONS) subgroup of the China National Stroke Registry-3 (CNSR-3). SUA concentration was assessed at baseline. Global cognitive status was evaluated using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The main clinical outcome was the incidence of PSCI assessed at 3 months after stroke/TIA. The association between SUA status and the risk of PSCI was assessed with multiple regression models adjusted for potential covariates.Results: Among the 1523 patients (1391 (91.33%) stroke patients and 132 (8.67%) TIA patients), 747 (49.05%) patients had PSCI at 3 months. Compared to the reference group, there was an increased risk of PSCI in males with SUA levels in the first (OR=1.76) and fourth quartiles (OR=1.47). A U-shaped association between SUA levels and the incidence of PSCI with an inflection point of 297 mmol/L was also found in males. However, there was no association between SUA levels and PSCI in females.Conclusion: The association between SUA and PSCI differed between males and females. In males, both low and high SUA levels were associated with relatively higher incidences of PSCI, supporting a U-shaped association between SUA levels and PSCI.Keywords: uric acid, cognitive impairment, stroke, transient ischemic attack, U-shaped curve |
