目的：确定接受ADT治疗的老年男性认知功能障碍的基线患病率，并评估认知功能随时间的变化。（中位年龄71岁，范围51-87）在ADT开始前进行了广泛的神经心理学测试，其中21例（65%）在6个月后完成了治疗后评估。在基线时，45%的人在≥ 2个神经心理学指标上得分低于平均值1.5个标准差。使用标准化的推理统计，没有记录治疗后的认知变化。可靠变化指数显示，在个案基础上，38%的人表现出执行功能的下降，48%的人表现出视觉空间能力的改善。在探索性分析中，得分低于预期的患者在基线显示没有变化的认知，而患者的平均或更好的分数在基线显示改善视觉空间规划和定时测试的音素fluency.Conclusions：我们发现了一个高患病率低于预期的认知性能的样本中的患者刚开始ADT前列腺癌。基线认知功能的评估应考虑到未来的研究和通知临床管理。(C)2010爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
Objectives: To determine the baseline prevalence of cognitive impairment in older men treated with ADT and to assess changes in cognitive performance over time.Materials and methods: Thirty two patients (median age of 71 years, range 51-87) were administered an extensive neuropsychological testing battery prior to ADT initiation, with 21 (65%) completing post treatment evaluations 6 months later.Results: At baseline, 45% scored >1.5 standard deviations below the mean on >= 2 neuropsychological measures. Using standardized inferential statistics, no change in cognition was documented following treatment. The Reliable Change Index revealed that, on a case by case basis, 38% demonstrated a decline in measures of executive functioning and 48% showed improvement on measures of visuospatial abilities. Within exploratory analyses, patients who scored below expectation at baseline displayed no change in cognition, while patients with average or better scores at baseline displayed improvements in visuospatial planning and timed tests of phonemic fluency.Conclusions: We found a high prevalence of lower than expected cognitive performance among a sample of patients just starting ADT for prostate cancer. Assessment of baseline cognitive function should be taken into account for future research and to inform clinical management. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
