Description

Liang Wang and Sarah Bauermeister review how early hardship gets under the skin in a 2025 paper. Heart disease and dementia share many causes, and both may be seeded early: childhood poverty or emotional abuse can steer a life toward illness decades later. The review gathers the proof on that early-adversity pathway into heart disease.

Following standard review practice, the pair searched four databases for studies from 2000 to late 2023 and graded their quality. The synthesis connects early adversity to adult risk factors such as blood pressure, smoking, and depression. Establishing the chain matters because dementia prevention may need to start with protecting children.
