“…Our finding corroborates the study by Kammersgaard et al 22 , in which older patients have more severe cognitive deficits. In addition, Naço et al 23 also state that cognitive decline after a stroke exponentially increases after age 65. We did not find significant differences in the motor ability of individuals older than 50 years.…”

RESUMO Os objetivos deste estudo foram (1) caracterizar pacientes pós-AVC em relação à habilidade motora (HM), sintomas depressivos (SD) e função cognitiva (FC); (2) realizar comparações desses aspectos entre sexo, idade, nível de atividade física; e (3) correlacioná-los com o tempo pós-AVC. Avaliamos 135 sujeitos com idade média de 60 (±15) anos e tempo médio pós-AVC de 17 meses. Foram usados os seguintes instrumentos: questionário sociodemográfico, Protocolo de Habilidade Motora de Fugl-Meyer (HM), Inventário de Depressão de Beck (SD) e Mini Exame do Estado Mental (FC). O teste Mann-Whitney foi utilizado para comparação entre sexo, idade e prática de atividade física. O coeficiente de Spearman para verificar a correlação entre o tempo pós-AVC e as variáveis analisadas (HM, SD e FC). O grupo obteve uma média de 118,19 (±30,45) para HM, 9,93 (±7,14) para SD e de 21,7 (±5,43) para FC. Além disso, nossos resultados mostram que as mulheres apresentam maiores níveis de sintomas depressivos do que os homens, pacientes maiores de 50 anos apresentaram pior escore para FC. Não houve diferenças significativas entre pacientes praticantes e não praticantes de atividade física em relação à habilidade motora, sintomas depressivos e função cognitiva. Não foram encontradas correlações significativas entre o tempo pós-AVC e as variáveis analisadas. Nossos resultados contribuem para o planejamento e ações que busquem a melhora da qualidade de vida dos pacientes.

The purpose of this study was to compare with different distance across three conditions in stroke survivors with the grading of cognitive state. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Twelve stroke patients who agreed to active participation were included. Participants were allotted to normal cognitive (CN) group (n=7) and cognitive impairment (CI) group (n=5) and then walked on a self-paced walkway at three conditions on the Time Up and Go (TUG) test and the 6 minute walk test (6MWT): 1) walking with your comfortable speed, 2) walking while carrying a tray with glasses, 3) walking with a verbal cognitive task. The TUG test was repeated three successful times on each condition. For the 6MWT, participants were tested one time. Results: The CI group walked slower than the CN group at the three conditions on the TUG test. However, there was no significant difference between two groups to each condition. A significant effect of dual tasking was found only in error of verbal cognitive task condition for the TUG test (p<0.05). On the 6MWT, the participants in the CI group walked short distance rather than the CN group (p<0.05). There were significant differences between two groups not only at all conditions but also at error of verbal cognitive task condition as well (p<0.05). Conclusions: To consider the results of different distances such as the TUG test and the 6MWT, we think that exercises in long distance would be more effective to patients with CI. Those would be improved patient's endurance in cognitive problem.

What is already known on this topic  Stroke patients are at known higher risk of cognitive decline. It is uncertain whether blood lipids, atherosclerosis and statin use are associated with dementia and cognitive impairment after stroke.What this study adds  This systematic review suggests that atherosclerosis may be an important risk factor for post-stroke dementia and cognitive impairment. Statins have a potential role in reducing the risk of post-stroke cognitive decline. Future studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Factors Influencing Mini-mental State (MMSE) Score in Stroke Patients

Abstract: Dementia after stroke is frequent. The MMSE is still a useful scale to evaluate the VaD and is related to age, gender, education, stroke age, cardiovascular risk factors, stroke type and localization, other neurological disorders as epilepsy and parkinsonism.
