Abstract excerpt

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is predicted to affect 132 million people by 2050. Targeting modifiable lifestyle risk factors that are associated with an increased risk of AD could prevent a large proportion of dementia cases, allowing people to reach the end of their life dementia free. However, evidence obtained from the observational studies does not take into account how risk factors are correlated with one...
