Analysis of changes in mental health, cognitive function and self-care behaviors in patients with heart failure: A prospective cohort study.
Background: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition affecting tens of millions of people worldwide. Despite advances in treatment, its impact on mental health, cognitive function and self-care behaviors remains underexplored, particularly across ejection fraction phenotypes, underscoring the need for comprehensive investigations into these interconnected domains.
Objectives: This prospective cohort study investigated changes in affective symptoms, cognitive functioning and self-care behaviors in patients with HF stratified with ejection fraction (EF) phenotypes over 6 months.
Material and methods: The study included 162 patients aged over 60 years with a diagnosis of HF. Participants were examined at enrollment and after 6 months. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and the European Heart Failure Self-care Behaviour Scale (EHFScB-9) were used to assess cognitive function, affective symptoms and self-care behaviors.
Results: Cognitive impairment indicated with the MMSE was less severe in patients with mildly-reduced HF (HFmrEF) compared to preserved EF (HFpEF) (MMSE median scores: 28 [interquartile range (IQR): 27-29] vs 27 [IQR: 25-28]; p = 0.008). The HADS showed that severity of depression worsened over 6 months, particularly in the HFpEF group (median scores increased from 1 [IQR: 0-4] to 3 [IQR: 0-6]; p = 0.006). Self-care ability declined in all groups as indicated in the increased EHFSc-9 (poorer self-care) median scores, which changed from 28 [IQR: 21-33] at baseline to 29 [IQR: 23-34] at 6 months (p = 0.035). Additionally, NT-proBNP parameters were higher in the HFrEF group (3437.7 pg/mL [IQR: 1336.33-6226.43) compared to both HFmrEF and HFpEF (2171.2 pg/mL [IQR: 806.65-4033.15] and 977.1 pg/mL [IQR: 576.9-3708.95, respectively, p = 0.001).
Conclusions: Patients with HF showed significant cognitive decline, increased depressive symptoms and reduced self-care over 6 months, with HFpEF patients exhibiting the most pronounced impairments. Differences in outcomes across HF phenotypes highlight the need for tailored diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to address cognitive and emotional challenges in this population.
期刊介绍：
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been published by the Wroclaw Medical University since 1992. Establishing the medical journal was the idea of Prof. Bogumił Halawa, Chair of the Department of Cardiology, and was fully supported by the Rector of Wroclaw Medical University, Prof. Zbigniew Knapik. Prof. Halawa was also the first editor-in-chief, between 1992-1997. The journal, then entitled "Postępy Medycyny Klinicznej i Doświadczalnej", appeared quarterly.
Prof. Leszek Paradowski was editor-in-chief from 1997-1999. In 1998 he initiated alterations in the profile and cover design of the journal which were accepted by the Editorial Board. The title was changed to Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine. Articles in English were welcomed. A number of outstanding representatives of medical science from Poland and abroad were invited to participate in the newly established International Editorial Staff.
Prof. Antonina Harłozińska-Szmyrka was editor-in-chief in years 2000-2005, in years 2006-2007 once again prof. Leszek Paradowski and prof. Maria Podolak-Dawidziak was editor-in-chief in years 2008-2016. Since 2017 the editor-in chief is prof. Maciej Bagłaj.
Since July 2005, original papers have been published only in English. Case reports are no longer accepted. The manuscripts are reviewed by two independent reviewers and a statistical reviewer, and English texts are proofread by a native speaker.
The journal has been indexed in several databases: Scopus, Ulrich’sTM International Periodicals Directory, Index Copernicus and since 2007 in Thomson Reuters databases: Science Citation Index Expanded i Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.
In 2010 the journal obtained Impact Factor which is now 1.179 pts. Articles published in the journal are worth 15 points among Polish journals according to the Polish Committee for Scientific Research and 169.43 points according to the Index Copernicus.
Since November 7, 2012, Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been indexed and included in National Library of Medicine’s MEDLINE database. English abstracts printed in the journal are included and searchable using PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.
