Description
Jesus Melgarejo and co-authors study thinking function, death, and cardiovascular risk in a 2025 cohort paper. Impaired thinking is linked to mortality, but population evidence is scarce and often uses a single test. The team ask whether thinking tests improve risk prediction beyond standard factors.
Nearly one thousand adults aged fifty five and older from a population study were followed for up to fifteen years. Tests included a standard mental state exam and memory recall measures. Standard risk factors covered pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, and prior disease. The analysis tests both the link itself and the added predictive value.
