Popis: Introduction Prospective studies of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) demonstrate sleep-wake disturbances may precede and accelerate with cognitive decline. Use of wrist-actigraphy in conjunction with overnight polysomnography (PSG) enables researchers to evaluate diverse characteristics of sleep and circadian rhythms. Though outcome measures from these devices have been implicated in the progression of AD, because of great individual differences, it is valuable to internally replicate within cohort. Here we demonstrate application of actigraphy in the context of healthy aging to identify patterns of activity that predict cognitive decline. Methods Participants were prospectively recruited at Washington University as part of the BASE study and wore an Actiwatch2 (Philips-Respironics) and cross-validated for sleep and wake using polysomnography. The watch was worn continuously for at least 5 consecutive nights to be included in the analysis (n = 68, age = 71.1 ± 4.5 years). Rest-activity rhythms were computed using compiled code from National Sleep Research Resource (actiCircadian) pipeline implemented in MATLAB R2021a (Mathworks). Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR) scales and cognitive tests were conducted on the first day of actigraphy recording. Results Individuals with cognitive impairment (CDR Global Score > 0) had increased wake after sleep onset (WASO) and reduced sleep efficiency compared with individuals with no impairment (CDR = 0). (unpaired ttest: p = 0.02 and p = 0.02). Participants with cognitive impairment had a trend toward reduced relative amplitude (RA) (p = 0.06). Reduced (worse) RA was correlated with worse performance on the Trail Making Task A (Pearson r: -0.37, p = 0.002). Higher (better) interdaily Stability (IS) was associated with better responses on subjective questionnaires including Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (Pearson r: -0.24 p = 0.051; r: 0.242, p = 0.047, respectively). Conclusion Actigraphically-derived rest-activity metrics are correlated with cognitive status, cognitive test performance, and subjective sleep questionnaires.
