The 85 subjects in the study group were regular patients in our center. The control group included 88 age and gender matched healthy individuals who were with normal renal function. The study subjects' cognitive levels and related factors were analyzed using several screening instruments the cognitive function was measured using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale and statistical analysis was conducted based on the relevant data.RESULTS:
The results showed that cognitive impairment was higher in peritoneal dialysis patients than in non-dialysis subjects.
