Revision as of 00:54, 21 December 2021
The addition of hyperbaric oxygen to treatment with donepezil did not importantly improve cognitive outcomes in patients with vascular dementia.
Clinical bottom line:
- Hyperbaric resulted in improved Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores
- Hyperbaric also resulted in increased serum humanin levels which may have a correlation with cognitive function
Citation/s:1. Xu Y, Wang Q, Qu Z, Yang J, Zhang X, Zhao Y. Protective effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on cognitive function in patients with vascular dementia. Cell Transplantation 2019; 28(8):1071-1075.
Lead author’s name and fax:Y. Zhao : zhao_yuwu2005@126.com
Three-part Clinical Question:In patients with vascular dementia, does treatment with hyperbaric oxygen and donepezil in comparison to donepezil alone result in an improvement in cognitive function?
Search Terms:Vascular dementia; cognitive function; humanin
The Study:Non-blinded non-concealed randomised controlled trial with intention-to-treat.
The Study Patients:Patients who met DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for vascular dementia. Patients with other forms of dementia, mental illness, brain trauma and severe systemic diseases were excluded.
Control group(N = 79; 79 analysed): Donepezil hydrochloride 5mg daily.
Experimental group(N = 79; 79 analysed): Donepezil hydrochloride 5mg daily and HBO 100% O2 at 2.0 ATA for 60 minutes 5 days per week for 12 weeks for a total of 60 sessions.

Comments:
- The authors’ treated MMSE scores as continuous and normally distributed – this is probably not appropriate. Their analysis suggests the difference between means is statistically significant (P<0.001), but we cannot confirm that on our analysis. Neither can we confirm the significant humanin analysis. The reason for the discrepancy is unclear.
- The authors identified a correlation between MMSE scores and humanin levels after adjusting for confounding factors. Humanin has no definitive clinical application currently.
- No blinding means there is a possibility of bias in this study through participation in the HBO arm.
- Donezepil is a cholinesterase inhibitor used to treat Alzheimer’s Disease (not vascular dementia).
- Outc0omes are very short-term (2 days after treatment completion.
