TL;DR: The present report presents much improved cost estimates for the total cost of disorders of the brain in Europe in 2010, covering 19 major groups of disorders, 7 more than previously, of an increased range of age groups and more cost items.
Journal ArticleDOI
Midlife overweight and obesity increase late-life dementia risk A population-based twin study
TL;DR: Both overweight and obesity at midlife independently increase the risk of dementia, AD, and VaD, and genetic and early-life environmental factors may contribute to the midlife high adiposity–dementia association.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Diabetes mellitus and risk of dementia in the Kungsholmen project A 6-year follow-up study
TL;DR: Diabetes mellitus increases the risk of dementia, and VaD in particular, in very old people, when diabetes mellitus occurs together with severe systolic hypertension or heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mid- and Late-life Diabetes in Relation to the Risk of Dementia: A Population-based Twin Study
TL;DR: The association between diabetes and the risk of dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and vascular dementia in twins and to explore whether genetic and early-life environmental factors could contribute to this association was verified, finding the risk is stronger when diabetes occurs at mid-life than in late life.
