Article Synopsis
- This study focused on creating machine learning models to identify predictive features of dementia in older adults who initially showed normal cognition.
- Four models were developed and tested, with the random forest model showing the highest accuracy (93%) using factors like memory test results, education, and follow-up time.
- The findings suggest that this machine learning approach can effectively predict dementia in primary healthcare settings, helping to track cognitive changes and enable early intervention.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between air pollution and the risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in older adults in China, using data from the Hubei Memory and Aging Cohort Study.
- Results show that higher levels of pollutants like PM2.5 and PM10 significantly increase the odds of developing MCI, particularly in older individuals.
- The findings highlight the need for more research across different populations to further understand and address the impact of air pollution on cognitive health in aging populations.
