Description
Ya-nan Ou, Lan Tan, and Jin-Tai Yu published a study in 2025 on heart and vessel health and the later risk of dementia. Evidence on single heart conditions has been patchy, so the team took a broad view in the UK Biobank. They tested both a standard heart-risk score and a long list of vessel diseases against several kinds of dementia.
More than four hundred thirty thousand dementia-free adults were followed for about nine years, during which nearly five thousand developed dementia. Higher heart-risk scores went with higher risk across the dementia spectrum. The high-risk group carried the heaviest burden, above all for vascular dementia. The results strengthen the case for guarding heart health to protect the brain.
