Urinary 8-OxoGsn as a Potential Indicator of Mild Cognitive Impairment in Frail Patients With Cardiovascular Disease.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative RNA damage has been found to be associated with age-related diseases and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGsn) is a typical marker of oxidative modification of RNA. Urine tests are a feasible non-invasive diagnostic modality. The present study aimed to assess whether the measurement of urinary 8-oxoGsn could represent a potential early maker in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) of frail patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this cross-sectional study performed in China from September 2018 to February 2019. Urinary 8-oxoGsn was measured in frail (Fried phenotype: 3-5) in patients with CVD and was adjusted by urinary creatinine (Cre) levels. Cognitive function was assessed by the Chinese version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and participants were classified int
