BACKGROUND: Low vitamin B₁₂ concentrations have been associated with higher risks of cognitive impairment, but whether these associations are causal is uncertain. The associations of cognitive impairment with combinations of vitamin B₁₂, holotranscobalamin, methylmalonic acid, and total homocysteine, and with the vitamin B₁₂ transport proteins transcobalamin and haptocorrin, have not been previously studied.
METHODS: We performed a population-based cross-sectional study of 839 people 75 years old or older. We examined the association of cognitive function as measured by mini-mental state examination scores, with markers of vitamin B₁₂ status. Spearman correlations as well as multivariate-adjusted odds ratios and 95% CIs for cognitive impairment were calculated for extreme thirds of serum concentrations of vitamin B₁₂, holotranscobalamin, methylmalonic acid, total homocysteine, combination of these markers in a wellness score, heaptocorrin, and transcobalamin for all data and with B₁₂ analogs in a nested case-control study.
RESULTS: Cognitive impairment was significantly associated with low vitamin B₁₂ [odds ratio 2.3 (95% CI 1.2-4.5)]; low holotranscobalamin [4.1 (2.0-8.7)], high methylmalonic acid [3.5 (1.8-7.1)], high homocysteine [4.8 (2.3-10.0)] and low wellness score [5.1 (2.61-10.46)]. After correction for relevant covariates, cognitive impairment remained significantly associated with high homocysteine [4.85 (2.24-10.53)] and with a low wellness score [5.60 (2.61-12.01)] but not with transcobalamin, haptocorrin, or analogs on haptocorrin.
CONCLUSIONS: Cognitive impairment was associated with the combined effects of the 4 biomarkers of vitamin B₁₂ deficiency when included in a wellness score but was not associated with binding proteins or analogs on haptocorrin.
