Topic: Gut, metabolism and diet
Considerable attention has focused on the prevention of dementia in terms of non-genetic risk factors, including midlife obesity, especially visceral obesity associated with hyperglycemia, hypertension, and hypercholesterolemia. Accumulating evidence has indicated that the increased insulin resistance in relation to visceral fat accumulation is potential risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and vascular dementia. Reducing the accumulating visceral fat may contribute to reduce the risk of on set and progression of AD and vascular dementia. Treatment with renin-angiotensin system blockers in hypertension might slow the rate of cognitive decline in patients with AD by modulating insulin resistance.

How this study scored 38/100
Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multi-centre collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 21 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 38 out of 100.
