Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine if factors identified at age 50 can predict cognitive impairment (CI) 23 years later, given the increasing prevalence of dementia.
- In 1993, researchers enrolled 798 men for a physical exam, blood tests, and lifestyle questionnaires, with cognitive evaluations done in 2016 at age 73 for those still alive.
- The findings revealed that specific indicators, such as wide waist circumference and leg pendulousness, noted at age 50, were linked to a higher risk of cognitive impairment later in life.
