ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the correlation between the level of 25(OH)D in peripheral blood and cognitive function in patients with epilepsy, and to find the biomarkers of epilepsy complicated with cognitive dysfunction.METHODS:
68 patients with epilepsy and 30 healthy subjects were included in this study. The 25(OH)D level in peripheral blood of all subjects was detected and the score of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale was performed. The patients with epilepsy were divided into a cognitively normal group (36 cases) and a cognitively impaired group (32 cases) according to the scale score. The inter-group scale score and 25(OH)D level were compared, and the correlation was analyzed.RESULTS:
The levels of 25(OH)D and MOCA in epileptic group were significantly lower than those in healthy control group. The 25(OH)D and MOCA of the cognitively impaired group were significantly lower than those of the cognitively normal group. Logistic regression analysis indicated that serum 25(OH)D level was an independent risk factor for epilepsy combined with cognitive impairment (OR = 0.704, P = 0.014). The area under ROC curve of serum 25(OH)D for diagnosis of epilepsy combined with cognitive impairment was 0.924 (95 %CI 0.866,0.981), the critical value was 34.50 nmol/L, the sensitivity was 0.778, and the specificity was 0.906.CONCLUSION:
Decreased levels of vitamin D are associated with cognitive impairment associated with epilepsy, and it may be a biomarker for early screening of cognitive impairment.Palabras clave
