Frailty and cognitive decline

Translational Research, 2020
Frailty and cognitive impairment are among the 2 most common geriatric syndromes. Their presence poses major risks to the elderly including greater disability, reduced quality of life, and higher morbi-mortality. Recent evidence suggest that frailty can be a risk factor for incident dementia.

Preventing Cognitive Decline

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1992
Many studies of age-related cognitive decline have failed to distinguish between usual and successful aging. Although some degree of cognitive impairment is associated with aging, when one looks at average performance, there is great variability among individuals, with many showing little or no deleterious effects of aging on intellectual abilities ...

Postoperative cognitive decline

Journal of Anesthesia, 2009
Memory loss and lack of concentration are symptoms that frequently occur in patients who have undergone a surgical procedure. Although cognitive function can be assessed using neuropsychological tests, reliable diagnosis of postoperative cognitive decline (POCD) appears to be difficult. Therefore, the true incidence of POCD is unknown.

Detecting cognitive decline

Nursing Older People, 2012
There is growing consensus that dementia has a long gestation period; it is known that neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques, the hallmarks of pathological change in dementia, are present in the brains of young adults. This study aimed to examine if decline in cognitive function can be detected earlier than previously thought.

Subjective Cognitive Decline Is Associated With Lower Baseline Cognition and Increased Rate of Cognitive Decline

The Journals of Gerontology: Series B, 2022
AbstractObjectivesSubjective cognitive decline (SCD) is a known risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease. However, little research has examined whether healthy older adults with SCD (SCD+) exhibit lower cognition and increased rates of cognitive decline compared to those without SCD (SCD−). The goal of this study was to examine if cognitive change over a 15-

[Cognitive decline and hypertension].

Archives des maladies du coeur et des vaisseaux, 2003
The prevalence and incidence of degenerative and vascular dementia increase exponentially with age. Several studies in recent years have implicated hypertension as a risk factor not only for vascular dementia but also for degenerative dementia such as Alzheimer's disease.

HRT and cognitive decline

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2003
It is biologically plausible that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) would be protective against cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We review observational and randomized trials to determine whether HRT might protect against cognitive decline in cognitively unimpaired and demented women.

Smoking and cognitive decline

Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental, 1997
The decline in cognitive functioning over a 7-year period in long-term regular smokers over the age of 50 was compared with that of lifelong non-smokers. The data comes from the Health and Lifestyle Survey, a longitudinal study of a representative sample of adults living in private households in England, Scotland and Wales. Four cognitive tests (memory,
