To examine the association between statin use and objectively assessed decline in gait speed in community-dwelling older adults.
Longitudinal cohort study.
Health, Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC) Study.
Two thousand five participants aged 70-79 at baseline with medication and gait speed data at 1998-99, 1999-2000, 2001-02, and 2002-03.
The independent variables were any statin use and their standardized daily doses (low, moderate, high) and lipophilicity. The primary outcome measure was decline in gait speed of 0.1 m/s or more in the following year of statin use. Multivariable generalized estimating equations were used, adjusting for demographic characteristics, health-related behaviors, health status, and access to health care.
Statin use increased from 16.2% in 1998-99 to 25.6% in 2002-03. The overall proportions of those with decline in gait speed of 0.1 m/s or more increased from 22.2% in 1998 to 23.9% in 2003. Statin use was not associated with decline in gait speed of 0.1 m/s or more (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 0.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.77-1.06). Similar nonsignificant trends were also seen with the use of hydrophilic or lipophilic statins. Users of low-dose statins were found to have a 22% lower risk of decline in gait speed than nonusers (AOR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.61-0.99), which was mainly driven by the results from 1999-2000 follow-up.
These results suggest that statin use did not increase decline in gait speed in community-dwelling older adults.
研究在社区居住的老年人中,他汀类药物的使用与客观评估的步态速度下降之间的关联。
纵向队列研究。
健康、衰老与身体成分(Health ABC)研究。
2500名基线年龄为70 - 79岁的参与者,他们在1998 - 1999年、1999 - 2000年、2001 - 2002年和2002 - 2003年有用药及步态速度数据。
自变量为是否使用任何他汀类药物及其标准化每日剂量(低、中、高)和亲脂性。主要结局指标是在使用他汀类药物后的下一年步态速度下降0.1米/秒或更多。使用多变量广义估计方程,对人口统计学特征、健康相关行为、健康状况和获得医疗保健的机会进行了调整。
他汀类药物的使用从1998 - 1999年的16.2%增加到2002 - 2003年的25.6%。步态速度下降0.1米/秒或更多的总体比例从1998年的22.2%增加到2003年的23.9%。他汀类药物的使用与步态速度下降0.1米/秒或更多无关(调整后的优势比(AOR)= 0.90,95%置信区间(CI)= 0.77 - 1.06)。在使用亲水性或亲脂性他汀类药物时也观察到类似的无显著趋势。发现低剂量他汀类药物使用者步态速度下降的风险比未使用者低22%(AOR = 0.78,95% CI = 0.61 - 0.99),这主要是由1999 - 2000年随访结果驱动的。
这些结果表明,在社区居住的老年人中,使用他汀类药物不会增加步态速度的下降。
