In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of MCI in a population of PD patients and identify the possible risk factors associated with MCI.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We performed an observational, cross-sectional study to evaluate cognitive function using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) test and the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) test in PD patients. Patients with diagnosis of dementia or severe neurologic impairment, active cancer, or infection were excluded.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>We evaluated 66 patients (mean age 60 years); 53% were male. Prevalence of MCI assessed by MOCA test and MMSE test was 65% and 33%, respectively. Predictors of MCI with MOCA test were higher age (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.0001), lower education level (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.005), need of a helper (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.009), and continuous ambulatory PD modality (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.019). Higher Charlson comorbidity index (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.002), coronary artery disease (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.006), and peripheral artery disease (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.033) were also associated with MCI. Lower Kt\/V (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.012) and lower levels of normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.000) were related to MCI. MCI patients had more episodes of peritonitis (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.047). Multivariable analysis showed that lower education, Kt\/V, and nPCR were the most relevant factors connected to MCI (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.029, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.037, and <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.019, respectively).<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>In our PD population, MCI was detected in more than half of the patients. Patients with MCI were older, had lower education level, more disease burden, and higher risk for developing peritonitis. Lower Kt\/V and nPCR levels were associated with MCI.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.25259\/ijn_378_23","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,14]],"date-time":"2024-05-14T08:20:25Z","timestamp":1715674825000},"page":"357-362","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.25259\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Cognitive
