Interaction Information:
| Comment | The population-based Uppsala Longitudinal Study of Adult Men started 1970 when the 2,322 participants were 50 years old. A low insulin response at baseline was associated with a higher cumulative risk of Alzheimer disease (AD) also after adjustment for age, systolic blood pressure, body mass index, serum cholesterol, smoking, education level, and insulin resistance. This association was stronger in subjects without the APOE epsilon4 allele. Impaired glucose tolerance increased the risk of vascular dementia but not AD. Impaired insulin secretion, glucose intolerance, and estimates of insulin resistance were all associated with higher risk of any dementia and cognitive impairment. |
