TLDR
The prevalence and characteristics of cognitive disorders and dementia in patients with CKD, brain imaging findings, and traditional and nontraditional risk factors are discussed.Abstract:
Epidemiologic data suggest that individuals at all stages of CKD have a higher risk of developing cognitive disorders and dementia. This risk is generally explained by the high prevalence of both symptomatic and subclinical ischemic cerebrovascular lesions. However, other potential mechanisms, including direct neuronal injury by uremic toxins, could also be involved, especially in the absence of obvious cerebrovascular disease. We discuss the prevalence and characteristics of cognitive disorders and dementia in patients with CKD, brain imaging findings, and traditional and nontraditional risk factors. Understanding the pathophysiologic interactions between renal impairment and brain function is important in order to minimize the risk for future cognitive impairment.read more

Potential Blood Biological Markers of Alzheimer's Disease
TL;DR: In community-dwelling, older adults, plasma Aβ40 and Aβ42 were significantly associated with age, race, sex, education, Apolipoprotein E genotype, and serum creatinine, and this association was stronger among women and among those with no APOE e4 allele.

TL;DR: Prior stroke and lower DBP were associated with 3MS < 80 in hemodialysis patients, supporting the hypothesis that these vascular factors contribute to low cognitive performance in patients undergoing he modialysis.

Ability of the Mini-Mental State Examination to Predict the Neuropsychological Performance of Hispanic Patients with Minor Neurocognitive Disorder
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) to predict the level of neurocognitive functioning of two samples of Hispanic patients with minor neuro-cognitive disorder in a battery of neuropsychological tests.

Association of Proximal Tubular Secretory Clearance with Long-Term Decline in Cognitive Function
TL;DR: Lower kidney clearances of secreted solutes were associated with incident global cognitive decline in a prospective study of CKD, independent of baseline eGFR, proteinuria, and other confounding variables as mentioned in this paper .

“Mini-mental state”: A practical method for grading the cognitive state of patients for the clinician
Marshal F. Folstein,Marshal F. Folstein,Susan E B Folstein,Susan E B Folstein,Paul R. McHugh,Paul R. McHugh +5 more
TL;DR: A simplified, scored form of the cognitive mental status examination, the “Mini-Mental State” (MMS) which includes eleven questions, requires only 5-10 min to administer, and is therefore practical to use serially and routinely.
A practical method for grading the cognitive state of patients for the clinician
TL;DR: The Mini-Mental State (MMS) as mentioned in this paper is a simplified version of the standard WAIS with eleven questions and requires only 5-10 min to administer, and is therefore practical to use serially and routinely.

Cerebral small vessel disease: from pathogenesis and clinical characteristics to therapeutic challenges.
TL;DR: Small vessel disease has an important role in cerebrovascular disease and is a leading cause of cognitive decline and functional loss in the elderly and should be a main target for preventive and treatment strategies, but all types of presentation and complications should be taken into account.

TL;DR: Elderly people with silent brain infarcts have an increased risk of dementia and a steeper decline in cognitive function than those without such lesions.
