Adaptive Cognitive Training on Cognitive Function in Elderly Hypertension Patients in the Community

MoCA has been widely used in the cognitive function assessment of middle-aged and elderly people in China, including executive function, memory, orientation, computation, conceptual thinking, visual perception, language, attention and attention. The MoCA scale scores ranged from 0 to 30, and the lower the score, the worse the cognitive function.

The TMT assesses cognitive processing speed and executive function. The TMT consists of two parts, A and B, and is one of the most widely used neuropsychological assessment tools. The TMT-A requires the subject to connect disorderly arranged numbers from 1 to 25 in order. The investigators used a modified version that included numbers in both square and circle figures and required participants to alternate the two figures when connecting the numbers in order. The score index was the time spent on TMT-A and TMT-B and the amount of interference (time spent on TMT-B - time spent on TMT-A).

DSST has 1-9 numbers and corresponding symbols. Subjects were required to correctly fill in the symbols under the numbers according to the corresponding relationship between numbers and symbols in the 90s content. One point was calculated for every one completed within 90 seconds, and the higher the score, the better the cognitive function.

AVLT consisted of 15 words, which were read aloud at a rate of one word in 2 seconds while the subject listened. After reading aloud, the subjects were asked to recall the words as much as possible for 90 seconds, and the recall did not have to be in the order of reading aloud. During the recall process, the examiner recorded the correct words and their number, inserted and repeated words. The above reading and immediate recall were repeated 5 times. The total score of AVLT recall from 1 to 5 passes was the total score of immediate recall. Delayed recall and cued recall were also performed, and distractor exclusion recall was performed.

There were 30 pictures in the BNT, and subjects were required to name the pictures, each of which was scored on a scale of 0-2. Two points were given for complete correctness, one point for semantic errors, and zero points for other situations. The sum of the scores of all objects gives a total score, with a maximum score of 60.

Description:GDS describes the participant's depressive symptoms in the past week on a scale of 0 to 15, with higher scores indicating more severe depressive symptoms.

GAD-7 assesses the anxiety of the participants in the past two weeks, with a total of 7 items. The total score ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating more severe anxiety symptoms.

PSQI assesses the subjective sleep quality of participants in the past month. The total score ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating worse sleep quality.

Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured using an Omron J-710 sphygmomanometer. Blood pressure will be measured three times with at least 30 seconds between each measurement.
