Comparison of homocysteine, vitamin B12 and folic acid between rural and urban ageing Indians and its association with mild cognitive impairment and cardiovascular risk factors: a cross-sectional analysis

The relationship between blood levels of homocysteine (HCY), vitamin B12, folic acid and cognitive impairment is inconclusive. Since HCY is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, understanding its association with Framingham risk score (FRS) may provide insight into the shared under...

description The relationship between blood levels of homocysteine (HCY), vitamin B12, folic acid and cognitive impairment is inconclusive. Since HCY is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, understanding its association with Framingham risk score (FRS) may provide insight into the shared underlying mechanism between cardiovascular disease and cognitive impairment. Cross-sectional analyses utilized baseline data from two ongoing longitudinal studies: the Tata Longitudinal Study of Ageing ( = 923), an urban cohort, and Srinivaspura Ageing, NeuroSenescence and COGnition ( = 4239), a rural cohort. The study compared the HCY, vitamin B12 and folic acid levels across cohorts and normal versus mild cognitive impairment (MCI) participants. The association between HCY and cognitive status was established using regression models. Three models were analysed: model 1-unadjusted; model 2-adjusted for age, gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, diet, hypertension, cardiac illness, diabetes; and model 3-adjusted for variables in model 2 plus vitamin B12 and folic acid. Correlation was calculated between HCY and FRS. The urban cohort exhibited a significantly higher level of HCY [median (IQR) (17.70 (10.2) versus 14.70 (9.7); < 0.001)], vitamin B12 (251 (231) versus 219 (138); < 0.001) and folic acid (8.21 (8) versus 5.48 (4); < 0.001) levels compared to rural cohort. HCY, vitamin B12 and folic acid levels did not differ significantly between normal and MCI participants in the urban cohort. In the rural cohort, among the age-gender matched MCI-normal, participants with normal cognition had higher levels of vitamin B12 (≥60 years) [227 (152) versus 217 (175); = 0.03] and folic acid (
