Introduction: The CAIDE (Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Incidence of Dementia) dementia risk score is based on demographic, genetic, and modifiable risk factors in midlife and has been shown to be predictive of later-life dementia.
Objective: To test the predictive capacity of the CAIDE dementia risk score among a cohort of Japanese-American men.
Methods: Midlife measures were obtained from a sample of 3,582 Japanese-American men in the Honolulu Heart Program (1965-1968, average age = 53.
Background: Findings are inconsistent regarding the role of traumatic head injury in the subsequent development of neurologic outcomes.
Objective: Examine the relationship between head injury and later cognitive impairment.
Methods: A sample of 3,123 Japanese-American men was assessed for history of head injury and evaluated for cognitive impairment using the Cognitive Abilities Screening Instrument (CASI).
