Two studies of older adults with type 2 diabetes linked diabetic retinal disease with higher dementia risk. DME and more severe diabetic retinopathy were associated with higher all-cause and vascular dementia risk, but not consistently with Alzheimer’s disease.
Recent studies examine biological factors affecting sleep in older adults, finding connections between inflammatory markers, antioxidant capacity, and sleep quality in aging populations.
A single blood test measuring p-tau217 protein can predict when cognitively unimpaired individuals will develop Alzheimer's symptoms, with a margin of error of 3-4 years, potentially accelerating clinical trials.
