ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the role of systemic inflammation in reduced cognitive functioning in patients with early-stage heart failure (HF) while determining associations with other cardiovascular risk factors.MethodsPatients with stage B HF (n= 270; mean [standard deviation] age= 66.1 [10.1] years) were examined cross-sectionally for relationships among cardiovascular disease (CVD) and psychological risk factors, C-reactive protein (CRP), and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores. A subsample (n= 83) at high risk for stage C HF (B-type natriuretic peptide levels≥ 65 pg/ml) were followed up for 12 months for relationships between CRP levels and cognitive function.ResultsBaseline smoking (χ 2= 6.33), unmarried (χ 2= 12.0), hypertension (χ 2= 5.72), greater body mass index (d= 0.45), and physical fatigue (d= 0.25) were related to higher CRP levels (p values<. 05). Cross-sectionally, CRP levels were negatively related to MoCA scores, beyond CVD (ΔR 2= 0.022, β=− 0.170, p<. 010) and psychological risk factors (ΔR 2= 0.016, β= 0.145, p<. 027), and related to mild cognitive impairment criteria (odds ratio= 1.35, 95% confidence interval [CI]= 1.00–1.81, p=. 046). Across 12 months, B-type natriuretic peptide high-risk patients with CRP levels≥ 3 mg/L had lower MoCA scores (23.6; 95% CI= 22.4–24.8) than did patients with CRP levels< 3 mg/L (25.4; 95% CI= 24.4–26.5; p=. 024).ConclusionsPatients with stage B HF and heightened CRP levels had greater cognitive impairment at baseline and follow-up, independent of CVD and potentially psychological risk factors. Low-grade systemic inflammation may be one mechanism involved in cognitive dysfunction at early stages of HF.
