The relationship between social participation and cognitive function early after surgery of glioma patients.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Social Participation (SP) is known to benefit cognitive function. However, whether this positive relationship holds across the people with glioma has not been studied. The present study aimed to investigate the current status of SP and cognitive function of patients early after surgery with glioma, and therefore, explore the associations between cognitive function and SP.

Methods

This study included 179 postoperative patients with gliomas within 6 months of surgery. Cognitive functioning was measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) including orientation, attention, learning and memory, executive functioning and verbal fluency. Social participation was obtained also by questionnaire survey with the Impact on Participation and Autonomy Questionnaire (IPA)
