Abstract

To evaluate associations of glycemic status with incident early-onset dementia (EOD) and late-onset dementia (LOD), dementia-free life expectancy, brain MRI structure measures, as well as the mediation pathway of depressive episode.

Research summary

The paper investigates the associations between glycemic status and the incidence of early-onset and late-onset dementia, as well as dementia-free life expectancy. This research is relevant as it explores potential links between metabolic health and cognitive aging, which could inform strategies for promoting longevity and addressing age-related diseases.
