(MedPage Today) -- Healthier lifestyle behaviors in midlife were linked with better outcomes in people with genetic predisposition for age-related brain diseases, longitudinal data from the U.K. Biobank showed. Over about 12 years of follow-up.
A research team from the University of Minnesota Medical School has identified a strong predictor of ischemic stroke and dementia, a discovery that could lead to improved patient outcomes. The findings were recently published in Stroke.
Starting with the good news, GLP-1s lowered risks for 42 health outcomes while increasing risks for 19 outcomes. As expected, GLP-1s reduced MI risk by 9%, cardiac arrest by 22%, incident HF by 11%, ischemic stroke by 7%, and hemorrhagic stroke by 14%. The less good news?
This irregular heartbeat is associated with increased risks of heart failure, dementia and stroke. These results pave the way for integration into wearable technologies, allowing early interventions and better patient outcomes. It gives early warnings on average 30 minutes before onset, with an accuracy of around 80%.

Stroke, Ahead of Print. The outcome was a first-ever diagnosis of dementia. The exposure and outcomes were identified using validated ICD-9 and ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. We excluded patients who had prevalent intracranial hemorrhage or dementia, to ensure that only incident cases were counted in our analyses.
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.

The exposures and outcome were identified using previously validatedICD-10-CMdiagnosis codes. years (IQR, 1.0-3.9),
The concept of AF burden has more recently been used as a clinical endpoint in clinical trials as a more clinically relevant endpoint compared to AF-related symptoms or time to first recurrence, but its correlation with symptoms and other clinical outcomes remains unclear.

We aimed to investigate whether socioeconomic status was associated with the rate of poststroke dementia (PSD).METHODS:This 1000 person-years).
Dementia is a leading cause of death and a major concern for most people as they age. Optimal metabolic health is linked to reduced rates of dementia, but the question again is whether the use of medications such as Ozempic might also delay the onset of dementia. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Sci Rep 13 , 20998 (2023).

It’s not that they don’t get cardiovascular disease, cancer or dementia; they just get it way later than everyone else. When broken down by disease category, cardiovascular disease, cancer, dementia, stroke, osteoarthritis, hypertension and stroke, the pattern is the same. J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sci.
