The Diagnostic Performance of Screening Instruments for Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia in Chronic Kidney Disease and Kidney Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale & objective

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia disproportionately affect people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney failure. Screening instruments can accurately identify cognitive impairment in the general population, but their performance in the setting of kidney disease is unclear. We aimed to summarize the performance of screening instruments for cognitive impairment in adults with CKD or kidney failure.

Study design

Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Setting & study populations

Adults with CKD or kidney failure (dialysis or kidney transplantation).

Selection criteria for studies

Studies published in Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and PsycINFO through October 2022, evaluating the diagnostic performance of cognitive
