Health-related quality of life in subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment: a longitudinal cohort analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) is an important outcome for patients and crucial for demonstrating the value of new treatments. Health utility estimates in subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are limited, especially in biomarker-confirmed populations. Besides, little is known about the longitudinal HR-QoL trajectory. This study aims to provide health utility estimates for SCD and MCI and investigate the QoL trajectory along the disease continuum.

Methods

Longitudinal data from 919 SCD and 1336 MCI patients from the MEMENTO cohort were included. SCD was defined as clinical dementia rating (CDR) = 0, and MCI as CDR = 0.5. HR-QoL was measured using the EQ-5D-3L patient-reported instrument. Linear mixed-effect models (LMM) we
