Background: Historically underrepresented populations experience a disproportionate burden of Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's disease related dementias (AD/ADRD) compared to White populations. As a salient resource for coping in Black communities, spiritual and religious practice may support better cognitive health, but it is unknown if changes in these practices are related to cognitive decline.
Methods: We analyzed secondary data of cognitively normal (via Consensus Conference at enrollment) older adults in the U.

Background: The literature has mainly focused on the association between tooth loss and dementia, and evidence regarding the separate and joint effects of tooth loss and denture use on the risk of dementia is limited. This study investigated the links among tooth loss, denture use, and dementia risk in Taiwanese adults aged 65 years or older.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study utilized data from the 2009 National Health Interview Survey and 2008-2017 National Health Insurance claim records, including the records of 2247 individuals free from dementia treatment in 2008-2009.

Multimodal Imaging of Neurodegenerative Disease (MIND) Unit, National Institute of Aging, Intramural Research Program, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Background: High-density lipoprotein (HDL) modulates the blood-brain barrier and cerebrovascular integrity, likely influencing the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD), neurodegeneration, and cognitive decline.
Objective: This study aims to identify HDL protein cargo associated with brain amyloid deposition and brain volume in regions vulnerable to AD pathology in older adults.
Methods: HDL was separated from the plasma of 65 non-demented participants of the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study using a fast protein liquid chromatography method.
