Summary

The cognitive trajectory varies among non-demented older adults. In a 12-year follow-up study, we found approximately 5% participants presented rapid cognitive decline. Cardiovascular diseases increased the risk of cognitive decline. However, the influence of cardiovascular risk factors on cognitive decline remained inconsistent. Besides, the potential mechanism of the cardiovascular risk factors and cognitive function has not been fully investigated. Therefore, the proposed program will include two sub-studies. The first sub-study will use the longitudinal data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey to evaluate the influence of cardiovascular risk factors on the trajectories of cognitive function. The second sub-study will recruit cognitive intact older adults with different levels of cardiovascular risk factors. The association among cardiovascular risk factors, cerebral blood flow, brain functional connectivity and cognitive function will be investigated with structural equation modeling. The findings of the proposed program will provide novel insight on preventing cognitive decline from the angle of maintaining healthy vascular function, and will provide evidence in elucidating the potential neurovascular mechanism between cardiovascular risk factors and cognitive function.
