摘要:
目的 利用分类模型决策树和随机森林探讨社区老年人认知障碍的生活方式影响因素, 为采取有效的预防措施提供科学依据。 方法 在北京、合肥和兰州3座城市整群抽样选取3个社区1 200名60岁以上健康或有慢性病的老人进行问卷调查。调查内容包括一般情况、生活行为方式、认知情况等。采用决策树和随机森林模型分析生活方式与认知障碍相关性。 结果 共1 115人完成全部调查项目, 应答率为92.9%, 287人(25.7%)存在不同程度的认知障碍, 女性认知障碍风险高于男性(P < 0.001), 年龄越大认知障碍风险越高(P=0.002)。决策树和随机森林模型中, 年龄、性别、运动和睡眠与认知障碍相关, 吸烟、饮酒、喝茶等对认知障碍的影响不显著。决策树ROC曲线下面积为0.64, 随机森林为0.94。 结论 分类模型可以帮助识别认知障碍和生活行为方式风险因素之间的关联。认知障碍危险因素的早期识别和积极干预, 可延缓及预防老年人认知障碍的发生, 对提高老年人生活质量有重大的意义。 Abstract:Objective To investigate the associations between lifestyle factors and social network and cognitive impairment among the elderly in three communities in China using decision tree and random forest. Methods 1 200 elderly individuals were selected from three communities in Beijing, Hefei, and Lanzhou by using a random cluster sampling method. Data was collected on lifestyle, social network and cognition. Decision tree and random forest analysis were conducted to identify the associations between lifestyle and cognitive impairment. Results A total 1 115 participants(92.9%) were administered questionnaires. The prevalence of cognitive impairment was 25.7%(n=287). Females exhibited a higher risk compared to males(P < 0.001), and there is a positive association between the risk of cognitive impairment and age(P=0.002). In the decision tree and random forest models, age, sex, activities, and sleep were associated with cognitive impairment, while the associations of smoking, alcohol and tea consumption were not significant in this study. The areas under the ROC curves were 0.64 for the decision tree, and 0.94 for the random forest model. Conclusions Classification models can help identify associations between cognitive impairment and lifestyle risk factors. Identification and intervention of risk factors are crucial in delay and prevention of cognitive impairment and in the improvement of quality of life among the elderly. -
