Cognitive Impairment and Associated Factors in Elderly Schizophrenia Patients

A retrospective cross-sectional study of 149 elderly inpatients with schizophrenia, examining the prevalence and factors associated with cognitive impairment. The dataset includes clinical characteristics, metabolic indicators, activities of daily living (ADL) scores, and perceived social support (MSPSS) scores. It was authored by Yanping Cai and last updated on 2026-04-30.

Use Cases

• Predicting cognitive impairment risk based on social support and functional independence scores.
• Clustering patient phenotypes based on cognitive and psychosocial profiles mentioned in the study.
• Analyzing the association between metabolic conditions like diabetes and cognitive outcomes in schizophrenia.
• Building classification models for cognitive impairment using the reported clinical and assessment variables.

Strengths

• Includes data from 149 patient records, providing a specific sample size.
• Reports a model classification accuracy of 96.6% for cognitive impairment.
• Identifies specific odds ratios for factors like diabetes (OR=7.735) and social support (OR=0.609).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is from a single retrospective study, which may limit generalizability.
