Inflammatory markers and cognition in well-functioning African-American and white elders

8 Jul 2003

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Several lines of evidence suggest that inflammatory mechanisms contribute to AD. OBJECTIVE: To examine whether several markers of inflammation are associated with cognitive decline in African-American and white well-functioning elders. METHODS: The authors studied 3,031 African-American and white men and women (mean age 74 years) enrolled in the Health, Aging, and Body Composition Study. Serum levels...
