Impact of glucose trajectory from mid to late life on risk of dementia: Results from three decades of follow-up in a cohort study

Key Points

• Dementia risk increases significantly with adverse glucose trajectory during mid to late life, which can inform health strategies.
• Adverse glucose levels tracked over decades showed a strong correlation, presenting a pressing health concern for aging populations.
• Longitudinal analysis spanning three decades provided comprehensive insights into the relationship between glucose and dementia incidence.
• Highlighting a need for targeted health interventions, this study underscores the importance of monitoring glucose levels in older individuals.
