Abbreviations: CAIDE, Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging, and Incidence of Dementia; LSM, least squares mean; SES, socioeconomic status.
Univariate multiple regression analysis included 2181 participants.
Attention was measured by composite z scores from the Cogstate Brief Battery detection and identification tasks.
Memory was measured by composite z scores from the Cogstate Brief Battery one card learning and one-back tasks.
CAIDE outcomes were not adjusted for age, sex, or years of education because these variables contribute to the CAIDE score itself.
Modified CAIDE dementia risk score was calculated using only physical activity, history of hypercholesteremia, history of hypertension, and body mass index.
df = 1 to 2172.
df = 1 to 2176.
df = 1 to 2173.
Socioeconomic status higher and lower than decile 8 on the Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. P values were corrected for false discovery rate.
