Abstract excerpt
The associations between branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and dementia in individuals with chronic diseases remain unclear, and evidence on aromatic amino acids (AAAs) is limited. Using metabolic biomarker data from 117,892 UK Biobank participants, we found that higher circulating levels of BCAAs (HR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.41-0.76) and AAAs (HR=0.74, 95% CI: 0.55-0.98) were associated with lower risks of all-cause...
