Study on correlation between imaging features and cognitive dysfunction in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage
Objective To study the correlation between imaging features and cognitive dysfunction in patients with hyper-tensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods Totally 100 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage complicated with cognitive impairment(as the observation group)and 100 patients without cognitive impairment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage(as the control group)admitted to our hospital from October 2020 to December 2021 were selected as the objects of this study.General clinical data and neuroimaging data of the two groups were collected.The Montreal Cogni-tive Assessment Scale(MoCA)and The Simplified Mental State Assessment Scale(MMSE)were used to assess the cognitive function of the patients,and the dementia score Scale(CDR)was used to assess the severity of dementia.Per-son correlation was used to analyze the correlation between the above factors and cognitive dysfunction of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhages.Results The incidence of white matter lesions and the number of intracerebral microbleeds in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).MoCA and MMSE scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,and CDR scores were more serious than those in the control group(P<0.05).Person correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between MoCA,MMSE score and CDR grade and the number of white matter lesions and intracerebral microbleeds in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhagepa-tients(P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of cognitive dysfunction in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemor-rhage is closely related to white matter lesions and the number of intracerebral microbleeds.
