- W2898077402 abstract "Citicoline can have beneficial effects both in degenerative and in vascular cognitive decline; it works through an increase in acetylcholine intrasynaptic levels and by promoting phospholipid synthesis, (chiefly phosphatidylcholine), cellular function, and neuronal repair. Memantine is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist used for the treatment of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD). When co-administered they could have a synergistic action in patients affected with AD and mixed dementia (MD) too. The aim of the present study was to show the effectiveness of oral citicoline plus memantine in patients affected with AD and MD. This was a retrospective study between 2015 and 2017 on 120 patients consecutive patients aged 65 years old or older affected with AD or MD (mean age 81,04 ± 5.1 years old). These data are preliminary because the study is in progress and involves different centers for dementia all over Italy. 58 patients were treated with memantine (group A), 62 patients with memantine plus citicoline 1g/day given orally (group B). In both groups memantine dosage was 10-20 mg/day according to its tolerability. 22 patients of group A and 27 patients of group B were affected with MD. Cognitive functions were assessed by MMSE, daily life functions by ADL and IADL, behavioral symptoms by NPI, comorbidities by CIRS, and mood by GDS-short form. Tests were administered at baseline (T0), after 6 (T1), and 12 months (T2). The primary outcomes were the effects of combined treatment versus memantine alone on cognitive functions assessed by MMSE. The secondary outcomes were possible side effects or adverse events of combination therapy versus memantine alone, influence on daily life functions and behavioral symptoms. Patients treated with citicoline plus memantine showed a statistically significant increase in MMSE between T0 and T1 (16.6 ± 2.69 vs 17,4 ± 2.71; p = 0.000) and between T1 and T2 (17,4 ± 2.71 vs 17.7 ± 2.8; p =0.000). Since it is important to maximize the present pharmacological means in AD and MD, this study encourages the role of combined administration of memantine plus citicoline in disease management by slowing disease progression." @default.
