Abstract
Objectives/background: Insomnia is a common sleep complaint among patients who had a stroke and has been recognized as an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment. However, the relationship between poststroke insomnia and cognitive impairment over time is under-researched. Therefore, we examined the association between poststroke insomnia and the risk of cognitive impairment.
Participants: Stroke participants who had a stroke and were 20 years and older.
Methods: This multicenter hospital-based retrospective cohort study with a 13-year follow-up period (2004-2017). The diagnosis of stroke, insomnia, and cognitive impairment was based on the International Classification of Diseases. The study participants who experienced a stroke were divided into two cohorts: those who also had insomnia and those who did not have insomnia. A Cox proportional-hazards regression model was used.
Results: A total of 1,775 patients with a mean age of 67.6 years were included. Of these patients, 146 and 75 patients were diagnosed with insomnia and cognitive impairment during the follow-up period, respectively. The cumulative incidence of cognitive impairment in the stroke with insomnia cohort was significantly lower than that in the stroke without insomnia cohort (log-rank test, P < .001). The adjusted hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI) of the stroke with insomnia cohort indicated a higher risk of cognitive impairment compared with the stroke without insomnia cohort (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.38; 95% CI: 1.41-4.03).
Conclusions: Patients who had a stroke and were diagnosed with insomnia exhibited a substantial increased risk of cognitive impairment over time.
期刊介绍:
Behavioral Sleep Medicine addresses behavioral dimensions of normal and abnormal sleep mechanisms and the prevention, assessment, and treatment of sleep disorders and associated behavioral and emotional problems. Standards for interventions acceptable to this journal are guided by established principles of behavior change. Intending to serve as the intellectual home for the application of behavioral/cognitive science to the study of normal and disordered sleep, the journal paints a broad stroke across the behavioral sleep medicine landscape. Its content includes scholarly investigation of such areas as normal sleep experience, insomnia, the relation of daytime functioning to sleep, parasomnias, circadian rhythm disorders, treatment adherence, pediatrics, and geriatrics. Multidisciplinary approaches are particularly welcome. The journal’ domain encompasses human basic, applied, and clinical outcome research. Behavioral Sleep Medicine also embraces methodological diversity, spanning innovative case studies, quasi-experimentation, randomized trials, epidemiology, and critical reviews.
