Thermoregulatory Stress and the Ageing Mind: Investigating Environmental High Heat Exposure as a Risk Factor for Dementia

2025-11-04

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Extreme heat exposure is a growing public health threat, particularly for older adults. While air pollution is a recognized modifiable risk factor for dementia, the role of sustained high heat exposure remains underexplored. This study investigates the association between cumulative extreme heat exposure and the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) and mild cognitive...
