Poor Sleep Might Eliminate The Benefits Of Exercise & Dementia. High levels of aerobic fitness are closely linked to lower rates of future dementia 1. Regular physical activity is arguably one of the biggest factors preventing dementia. When it comes to preventing dementia, this could not be truer.

Recently, some randomized trials, including the SPRINT (Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial), have suggested that improvements in cardiovascular risk factors may also slow cognitive decline and reduce the eventual development of dementia.

Introduction:All-cause dementia remains a significant public health concern, with stroke recognized as a key risk factor. Few studies have applied Machine Learning (ML) models to accurately predict cognitive impairment and dementia, yet none have specifically focused on post-stroke dementia risk prediction.

Cardiovascular disease, cancer and dementia account for 60% of all deaths in the US. Low = 0 - 49 Moderate = 50 - 79 High = 80 - 100 What Happens To NCD Risk When You Get These Right? Yes, many external factors impact these factors, but ultimately, you have significant control over all of these. These are NCD’s.

Background:Cognitive decline and dementia are significant global health concerns, with hypertension being a major risk factor. Moreover, the relationship between blood pressure (BP) components, particularly diastolic BP (DBP) and pulse pressure (PP), and the risk of cognitive decline or dementia remains complex.

The benefit of resistance training observed in observational studies is supported by controlled trials on resistance training, which demonstrate that this type of exercise reduces traditional and nontraditional CVD risk factors. Aerobic training is probably best for increasing cardiorespiratory fitness (i.e., In short — do both!

Background:Adherence to the American Heart Association's Life’s Essential 8 (LE8) reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease. While the epsilon (ε) 4 variants within theAPOEgene have been extensively investigated as a risk factor for dementia and stroke,APOEε4 carriers have not been thoroughly studied as an at-risk population.
