Journal ArticleDOI
Observed Hearing Loss and Incident Dementia in a Multiethnic Cohort.
Justin S. Golub,José A. Luchsinger,Jennifer J. Manly,Yaakov Stern,Richard Mayeux,Nicole Schupf +5 more
TL;DR: To determine whether observed hearing loss (OHL) is associated with incident dementia in a multiethnic population, a large number of patients with confirmed or suspected hearing loss are screened for dementia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improved diabetes control in the elderly delays global cognitive decline.
José A. Luchsinger,Walter Palmas,Jeanne A. Teresi,Jeanne A. Teresi,Stephanie Silver,Jian Kong,Joseph P. Eimicke,Ruth S. Weinstock,Ruth S. Weinstock,Steven Shea +9 more
TL;DR: Improved diabetes control in the elderly following existing guidelines through a telemedicine intervention was associated with less global cognitive decline, and the main mediator of this effect seemed to be improvements in HbA1c.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic syndrome and dementia risk in a multiethnic elderly cohort
Majon Muller,Majon Muller,H Ming Xin Tang,Nicole Schupf,Jennifer J. Manly,Richard Mayeux,José A. Luchsinger +6 more
TL;DR: The MeSy was not associated with an increased dementia risk in a multiethnic elderly cohort, but diabetes andhyperinsulinemia were, and in the elderly, examining diabetes and hyperinsulininemia separately may be preferable to using the MeSy as a risk factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma lipid levels in the elderly are not associated with the risk of mild cognitive impairment.
Christiane Reitz,Ming-Xin Tang,Jennifer J. Manly,Nicole Schupf,Richard Mayeux,José A. Luchsinger +5 more
TL;DR: Low levels of total cholesterol and LDL were associated with a decreased risk of total MCI in models adjusting for age and sex, but these associations were attenuated after adjusting for ethnicity, education, APOEΕ4 and vascular risk factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subclinical cerebrovascular disease in mild cognitive impairment
José A. Luchsinger,Adam M. Brickman,Christiane Reitz,S. J. Cho,Nicole Schupf,Jennifer J. Manly,Ming-Xin Tang,Scott A. Small,Richard Mayeux,Charles DeCarli,Truman R. Brown +10 more
TL;DR: White matter hyperintensity (WMH) is more strongly related to amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
