Summary: This study examines the longitudinal associations between depressive symptoms and cognitive performance among middle-aged and elderly population. The results show that higher levels of depressive symptoms are associated with lower cognitive performance. Over time, cognitive performance declines while depressive symptoms increase.

Summary: This study found that hearing impairment is a risk factor for cognitive decline and all-cause mortality in older adults. Older adults with hearing impairment had a higher risk of all-cause mortality compared to those without hearing impairment. Additionally, older adults with both hearing impairment and cognitive impairment had an even greater risk of mortality.

Summary: This study found a positive association between increasing values of the TyG index and the risk of cognitive decline. Monitoring the TyG index may help in the early identification of individuals at high risk of cognitive deterioration.

Summary: The study revealed an inverted U-shaped relationship between PM2.5 and cognitive decline, with low to mean levels of PM2.5 associated with a higher risk of accelerated cognitive decline. Cerebrovascular diseases further amplified this risk.

Summary: This study examines the association between subjective cognitive decline (sSCD) and objective cognition, finding a weak correlation between the two. Older age, poor sleep quality, and higher anxiety are independent predictors of sSCD. The study suggests that sSCD, in the absence of objective decline, may be an example of poor meta-cognition and a potential driver for functional cognitive disorder (FCD).

Summary: This study examined the bidirectional relationship between physical function and cognition, and found that lower physical function at baseline was associated with cognitive decline, while cognitive decline over time also affected physical function deterioration.

Summary: The coexistence of physical and cognitive impairments in older adults can predict incident disability, dementia, and mortality. This study investigated the natural course and prevalence of these impairments and found that skeletal muscle mass/function and memory function are crucial factors associated with the progression or reversal of functional impairments.

Summary: The study found that interacting with friends, playing Mah-jong or other games, providing infrequent help to others, and engaging in sports are significantly associated with participants' memory. Infrequent playing of Mah-jong or other games and daily sports are significantly associated with better mental status. The effects of each activity vary among different age groups, education levels, gender, and residences.

Summary: Cognitive frailty was found to be associated with falls in older people in a population-based longitudinal study. It may serve as a risk factor for falls, and early screening might be beneficial in fall prevention.

Summary: This study found that delirium during hospitalisation, rather than hospitalisation per se, is a risk factor for future cognitive decline. Emphasizing the need for dementia prevention studies that focus on delirium intervention.

Summary: The use of solid fuel for cooking is associated with lower cognitive scores, with significant moderating effects of gender and residence among users of solid fuel. Furthermore, compared to clean fuel users, solid fuel users experience a faster decline in cognitive function, particularly in the subgroups of females and elderly individuals.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the relationship between baseline levels of soluble low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (sLRP1) and soluble receptor of advanced glycation end products (sRAGE) and early cognitive decline, as well as the potential influence of apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype. The results showed that baseline levels of sLRP1 and sRAGE were not associated with 4-year cognitive decline in the total cohort. However, there was a significant interaction effect between sRAGE and APOE genotype, with lower levels of sRAGE being associated with increased risk of cognitive decline in APOE epsilon 4 non-carriers.

Summary: This study provides evidence of cognitive decline among individuals with mild symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. The pathogenesis of this complication remains unknown. Seropositive individuals were found to have a higher risk of cognitive decline compared to seronegative individuals.

Summary: Sleep medications, especially benzodiazepines, have been found to impair prospective and retrospective memory. Different types of medications showed few differences in their effects, indicating a need for larger samples for a more detailed analysis.
