Disparities in treatment of diabetes and hypertension among groups of foreign origin and the general Finnish population.
TL;DR: Diabetes, CVD risks and treatment outcomes in patients were sub-optimal, especially among foreign origin groups, and comprehensive health promotion strategies are needed to improve cardiometabolic health in vulnerable populations.
Apolipoproteins and HDL cholesterol do not associate with the risk of future dementia and Alzheimer's disease: the National Finnish population study (FINRISK)
Juho Tynkkynen,Jussi Hernesniemi,Tiina Laatikainen,Tiina Laatikainen,Aki S. Havulinna,Jouko Sundvall,Jaana Leiviskä,Perttu Salo,Veikko Salomaa +8 more
TL;DR: The study does not support the use of these risk markers to predict incident dementia or AD in the general population free of dementia at baseline and HDL-C was inversely associated with incident AD risk when adjusted for competing risks.
