Topic: Risk, prevention and care in population studies
To investigate the association of the area deprivation index (ADI), as assigned at the census block group-level, with progression to dementia in cognitively unimpaired at baseline participants (≥50 years old) of the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging (MCSA).
Key findings
- To investigate the association of the area deprivation index (ADI), as assigned at the census block group-level, with progression to dementia in cognitively unimpaired at baseline participants (≥50 years old) of the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging (MCSA).
Why it matters
This study looked at whether living in a more deprived area is linked to developing dementia in people who did not have it at the start. The provided text does not report any results, so no conclusion about this link can be drawn from it.
