Abstract

Although hyperlipidemia is known to contribute to vascular disease and it may play a role in dementia, specific studies for elderly are limited. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between dyslipidemia and dementia. In this study, 1251 patients admitted to the Hacettepe University Division of Geriatric Medicine were enrolled. On the basis of the mini mental state examination (MMSE), the clock drawing test (CDT) scores, the APA DSM-IV and the NINCDS-ADRDA criteria and the Hachinski ischemic score (HIS), the subjects were divided into four groups: Alzheimer's disease (AD), vascular dementia (VD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and normal cognitive status (NCS). The lipoprotein levels were measured, and we analyzed the data using chi2 and the one-way analysis of variance methods. Among the subjects, 14.8% had low high-density lipoproteins (HDL), 58.5% had high triglyceride (TG), 73.6% had high low-density lipoproteins (LDL), and 21.6% had high lipoprotein-a (Lp(a)) of our study population. There was no difference between the dementia subgroups and the NCS group in the lipoprotein levels. The only significant relationship was between high TG levels and the AD, as well as the MCI groups. Low HDL and high LDL are important problems in elderly. Although serum lipid levels, especially of Lp(a), has recently been thought to be related with dementia, our study suggests the absence of such a relationship. The national data regarding the elderly population should be eva…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
