Asthmatics are at increased risk for cognitive impairment. The association of asthma control with cognitive performance, however, has not been rigorously assessed among older adults. We examined the hypothesis that poor asthma control is associated with cognitive impairment in a cohort of older, inner-city asthmatics. Adults ages 60+ years with a physician diagnosis of asthma were recruited from outpatient practices in New York City and Chicago. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and ≥10 pack-year smoking histories were excluded. Cognitive assessments included processing speed (pattern comparison, Trails A), executive function (Trails B), attention and working memory (letter number sequencing), immediate and delayed recall (Wechsler Memory Scale Story A), word fluency (animal naming), and global cognitive function (Mini-Mental State Exam). Asthma control was measured with the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) and airway obstruction by spirometry as the predicted forced expiratory volume at 1-second (FEV1) <70%. Cognitive measures were modeled in linear and logistic regression models controlling for age, race, education, English proficiency, and income. The 452 participants had a mean age of 68; 41% had poor asthma control by the ACQ and 35% had FEV1<70%. Poor asthma controland FEV1<70% were significantly associated with all measures of cognitive function in univariate analyses. However, these associations lost their statistical significance after adjusting for age, education, English speaking ability and other covariates. The same pattern was observed when the outcomes were below normal performance on the cognitive measures based on normative data. Among older adults with asthma, poor asthma control and airway obstruction are not associated with poor performance on various measures of cognitive function.
