Plasma proteins, cognitive decline, and 20‐year risk of dementia in the Whitehall II and Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities studies Open
Introduction Plasma proteins affect biological processes and are common drug targets but their role in the development of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias remains unclear. We examined associations between 4953 plasma proteins and …

Association of plasma proteins with rate of cognitive decline and dementia: 20-year follow-up of the Whitehall II and ARIC cohort studies Open
The role of circulating proteins in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias is unknown. Using a follow-up of two decades, 4953 plasma proteins, and discovery (Whitehall II) and replication cohort (ARIC), we examined plasma proteins assoc…

Association of Alcohol-Induced Loss of Consciousness and Overall Alcohol Consumption With Risk for Dementia Open
The findings of this study suggest that alcohol-induced loss of consciousness, irrespective of overall alcohol consumption, is associated with a subsequent increase in the risk of dementia.

Job Strain as a Risk Factor for Peripheral Artery Disease: A Multi‐Cohort Study Open
Background Job strain is implicated in many atherosclerotic diseases, but its role in peripheral artery disease ( PAD ) is unclear. We investigated the association of job strain with hospital records of PAD , using individual‐level data fr…

Physical inactivity, cardiometabolic disease, and risk of dementia: an individual-participant meta-analysis Open
Objective To examine whether physical inactivity is a risk factor for dementia, with attention to the role of cardiometabolic disease in this association and reverse causation bias that arises from changes in physical activity in the precl…

Body mass index and risk of dementia: Analysis of individual‐level data from 1.3 million individuals Open
Introduction Higher midlife body mass index (BMI) is suggested to increase the risk of dementia, but weight loss during the preclinical dementia phase may mask such effects. Methods We examined this hypothesis in 1,349,857 dementia‐free pa…

Job insecurity and risk of diabetes: a meta-analysis of individual participant data Open
Our findings suggest that self-reported job insecurity is associated with a modest increased risk of incident diabetes. Health care personnel should be aware of this association among workers reporting job insecurity.
