Construction of a risk prediction model of mild cognitive impairment in hospitalized patients with hypertension

Objective To explore the risk factors of mild cognitive impairment in hospitalized patients with hypertension, and establish a risk prediction nomogram model. Methods A total of 182 patients with hypertension admitted in our hospital from May to November 2021 were enrolled in this study. They were surveyed with information questionnaire, Mini-Mental State Examination, Beijing version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Coping and Adaptation Processing Scale, Self-Rating Depression Scale and Therapeutic Adherence Scale. Logistic regression stepwise analysis was used to screen the independent risk factors of mild cognitive impairment, and the risk prediction nomogram model was established. Results The prevalence rate of mild cognitive impairment in hospitalized hypertensive patients was 68.1%. Based on the results of logistic regression analysis, 5 risk factors including age (OR=1.053), diabetes (OR=2.359), daily life management (OR=0.926), years of education (OR=0.776), and coping and adaptation (OR=0.947) were
