OBJECTIVE: Cervical cancer, linked to human papillomavirus (HPV), ranks fourth among women's cancers globally. Several studies have found an association between viral infections or cancer and dementia, which is a major public health concern. This study aimed to provide real-world data on the association between cervical cancer and the risk of dementia.
METHODS: This population-based cohort study, utilizing Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database, included 53 905 patients, with 10 781 having cervical cancer, matching with 43 124 controls in a 1:4 ratio based on age and indexed date. Incidence density rates were used to calculate the incidence rate of dementia. Adjusting for comorbidities, a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to estimate the hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Additionally, the risk of dementia was further verified using the cumulative incidence analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method.
RESULTS: This study indicated a significantly higher dementia risk in the cervical cancer cohort compared with the non-cervical cancer cohort (adjusted HR (aHR)=1.64, 95% CI 1.16 to 2.26; p<0.001), suggesting a 1.64-fold increased risk. Notably, cervical cancer posed a greater risk of dementia (aHR=1.69, 95% CI 1.21 to 2.29; p<0.001) compared with carcinoma in situ of the cervix (p=0.18) and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (p=0.23). The cumulative incidence of dementia in the cervical cancer group was significantly higher (log-rank test, p<0.001) than the control group.
CONCLUSIONS: Cervical cancer (invasive disease) was associated with a significant risk of dementia, unlike carcinoma in situ of the cervix and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (pre-invasive diseases), suggesting HPV infections may play a role in dementia, particularly oncogenic types. This highlights the importance of further investigation into the underlying mechanisms of the association between cervical cancer and dementia.
