Plain-language summary
BC residual was significantly associated with worse cognitive performance. This association was modified by sex, history of solvent exposure and depression. For DSST, an interquartile increase in BC residual was associated with β coefficients of -0.005 (95%CI: -0.022, 0.013) and -0.046 (-0.064, -0.029) in men and women, -0.037 (-0.067, -0.006) and -0.026 (-0.040, -0.013) in those exposed and not exposed to solvents, and -0.049 (-0.077, -0.022) and -0.020 (-0.034, -0.006) in those with and without depression, with P-interaction < 0.05. Similar trends were found for other cognitive tests. BC was linked with cognitive impairment, independently of PM2.5, with stronger effects in females, persons with history of solvent exposure, or depression.

Key findings
- BC residual was significantly associated with worse cognitive performance.
- This association was modified by sex, history of solvent exposure and depression.
- For DSST, an interquartile increase in BC residual was associated with β coefficients of -0.005 (95%CI: -0.022, 0.013) and -0.046 (-0.064, -0.029) in men and women, -0.037 (-0.067, -0.006) and -0.026 (-0.040, -0.013) in those exposed and not exposed to solvents, and -0.049 (-0.077, -0.022) and -0.020 (-0.034, -0.006) in those with and without depression, with P-interaction < 0.05.
- Similar trends were found for other cognitive tests.
- BC was linked with cognitive impairment, independently of PM2.5, with stronger effects in females, persons with history of solvent exposure, or depression.
Why it matters
This conference abstract reports that black carbon residual was significantly associated with worse cognitive performance, with the association modified by sex, history of solvent exposure and depression. It found stronger effects in females, persons with history of solvent exposure, or depression.
