BackgroundThe association between lung function and motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR) is unclear. We aimed to explore the association of peak expiratory flow (PEF) with MCR using cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses.MethodsWithin the CHARLS, 5095 participants were included in the cross-sectional analysis, and 4340 MCR-free participants were included in the longitudinal analysis. The PEF was assessed with a lung peak flow meter. MCR was characterized by cognitive complaints and a slow walking speed with normal mobility and without dementia. Logistic regression, Cox regression, and Laplace regression models were employed for data analysis.ResultsIn this cross-sectional study, logistic regression analyses revealed that continuous PEF was associated with MCR (odds ratio [OR], 0.998; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.998, 0.999), and the ORs (95% CIs) of MCR prevalence were 0.857 (0.693, 1.061) for the middle tertile and 0.665 (0.524, 0.845) for the highest tertile compared to the lowest tertile. In a longitudinal cohort study, continuous PEF was dose-dependently associated with the risk of MCR. Compared with those in the lowest tertile of PEF, the hazard ratios (95% CIs) of incident MCR were 0.827 (0.661, 1,036) for the middle tertile and 0.576 (0.432, 0.767) for the highest tertile. Furthermore, compared with the lowest tertile, the highest tertile was associated with a delayed onset time of MCR of 0.484 (95% CI: 0.151, 0.817) years.ConclusionA higher PEF was related to a lower prevalence of MCR and a lower risk for MCR, and a higher PEF also prolonged the onset time of MCR. |
