We analyzed the frequency of cognitive impairment (CI) in deceased COVID-19 patients at a tertiary hospital Spain. Among 477 adult cases who died after admission from March 1 to 31, 2020, 281 had confirmed COVID-19. CI (21.1% dementia and 8.9% mild impairment) was common comorbidity. Subjects with were older, tended live nursing homes, shorter time symptom onset death, rarely admitted ICU, receiving palliative care more often. is frequent comorbidity subjects associated differences care.
<b><i>Objectives:</i></b> To study and compare associations of 5 dietary patterns – Mediterranean pattern (MDP), Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH), Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative delay (MIND), Alternative Healthy Eating Index (AHEI-2010), a pro-vegetarian diet (PVD) with cognitive function. <b><i>Patients Methods:</i></b> A subgroup 806 participants from the “Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra”(SUN) cohort...
Background: Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) and artificially-sweetened (ASB) have been inconsistently associated with declines in cognitive function. Because of their low caloric content replacement sugar, ASB are often seen as 'healthy' alternatives to SSB.Objective: We longitudinally assessed the association between consumption SSB or function.Design: A subsample 'Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra' (SUN) cohort university graduates aged over 55 years old was evaluated Spanish Telephone...
To compare the Spanish version of modified Telephone Interview Cognitive Status (STICS-m) with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and predict its ability to detect development dementia. 106 participants in a dietary intervention trial underwent face-to-face evaluation MMSE, phone interview STICS-m. The correlation between STICS-m MMSE was assessed intraclass coefficient (ICC) consistency. Secondly, 932 over 55 years old from “Seguimiento Universidad de Navarra” cohort were evaluated data...
ABSTRACT Introduction Little is known about the relation of cognitive impairment (CI) to COVID-19 mortality. Here, we analyse frequency CI in deceased patients. Methods We included 477 adult cases that died after admission from March 1 31, 2020: 281 with confirmed COVID-19, 58 probable and 138 who other causes. Results The number comorbidities was high common (30%: 21.1% dementia; 8.9% mild impairment). Subjects were older, more lived nursing homes had shorter times symptom onset death than...
Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) and primary mitochondrial myopathies (PMMs) can present with ptosis, external ophthalmoplegia, limb weakness. Our method involved the description of three cases CMS that were initially characterized as probable PMM. All patients male presented ptosis and/or ophthalmoplegia at birth, proximal muscle weakness fatigue on physical exertion. After normal repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) studies performed facial muscles, a biopsy (at median age 9) was to...
Abstract Background Dementia affected an estimated 44 million persons in 2016 and it is projected to affect 132 by 2050. Drugs cure or delay the progression of disease are not available proving difficult develop. Thus, prevention cognitive function decline extremely relevant. Diet a key pertinent target for primary prevention, but firm recommendations dementia yet. Our aim was address association between empirically derived dietary patterns (DP) changes Spanish Telephone Interview Cognitive...
