Article Synopsis
- This study looked at whether older adults with a mix of symptoms called the AGED triad (which includes apathy, slow walking, and trouble with thinking) get dementia earlier.
- Researchers followed 322 older people for up to 9 years and found that 44 of them developed dementia.
- Those with all three AGED symptoms had a much higher chance of getting dementia faster than those with fewer symptoms, making the AGED triad a helpful way to spot people at risk.
