Although consumption of ultraprocessed food has been linked to higher risk cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, and obesity, little is known about the association foods with cognitive decline.To investigate between decline in Brazilian Longitudinal Study Adult Health.This was a multicenter, prospective cohort study 3 waves, approximately 4 years apart, from 2008 2017. Data were analyzed December 2021 May 2022. Participants public servants aged 35 74 old recruited 6 cities. who, at...
Background: The relationship between the Mediterranean-DASH Diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet and cognition has not been widely investigated in low- to middle-income countries. We MIND Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil) baseline data. Methods: included 11,788 participants. adherence was based on intake 15 components according a food frequency questionnaire. analyzed association global cognition, memory, executive function using adjusted linear...
Excess sugar consumption, particularly in sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs), has been linked to poor cognitive performance. We aimed assess the association of consumption total sugar, as well SSBs, solid desserts, and 100% fruit juice with performance among older adults.Consumption were obtained from 24-hr recall interview. Cognitive was evaluated using Consortium Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease word list, Animal Fluency Test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test. Binary logistic...
Abstract Background Life's Simple 7, a lifestyle and cardiovascular index associated with cognition, has been updated to Essential 8 (LE8) include sleep. LE8 related outcomes but its association cognition is unclear. Method s In this longitudinal analysis of the Brazilian Longitudinal Study Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil), score was based on health behaviors (diet, physical activity, nicotine exposure, sleep health) as well health‐related factors (body mass index, blood lipids, glucose,...
Peripheral arterial disease, as measured by the ankle-brachial index (ABI), is prevalent among elderly, and associated with functional performance, assessed 6-minute walk test (6MWT). Executive cognitive function (ECF) impairments are also in this population, but no existing study has investigated association between ECF performance an elderly population including individuals low ABI.To investigate 6MWT, loss ECF, sample ABI.The ABI group was formed 26 (mean ABI: 0.63±0.19), control 40...
Socioeconomic factors are important contributors to brain health. However, data from developing countries (where social inequalities the most prominent) still scarce, particularly about hypertensive individuals.To evaluate relationship between socioeconomic index, cognitive function, and cortical volume, as well determine whether white matter hyperintensities mediators of association index with function in individuals.We assessed 92 participants (mean age = 58±8.6 years, 65.2%female)....
Abstract INTRODUCTION Common carotid intima‐media thickness (cIMT) is a marker of subclinical atherosclerosis and associated with cognitive decline. Although more frequent in White than Black participants, little known whether race modifies the association between cIMT METHODS In this longitudinal analysis ELSA‐Brasil, we assessed using ultrasound performance different domain tests. We used linear mixed models, interaction analysis, stratified analyses. RESULTS Baseline high IMT values were...
Background Hypertension is associated with working memory (WM) impairment. However, the benefits of Cogmed WM training for hypertensive population are unknown. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate Cogmed’s effects on performance individuals executive function (EF) Methods We included 40 patients (aged 40–70 years, 68% female) EF They were randomized in a 1:1 ratio receive 10 weeks adaptive or non-adaptive control based online games. The primary outcome was performance. secondary outcomes verbal...
It is estimated that 2% of dementia cases worldwide could be prevented with increases in physical activity. However, there little evidence the association between vigorous activity (VPA) and cognitive performance. This study aimed to investigate moderate (MPA) VPA performance older adults from Brazilian Longitudinal Study Aging (ELSI-Brasil).
Abstract Background Consumption of ultra‐processed foods (UPF) has progressively increased worldwide in the last 30 years. High intake UPF is associated with cardiovascular disease and cancer hypothesized to induce systemic inflammation oxidative stress. Although may also be a risk factor for cognitive decline through these pathways, little lnown about effects on cognition. We aimed investigate longitudinal association between consumption ELSA‐Brasil study during 9 years follow‐up. Method...
Background: Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis are susceptible to the development of autonomic dysfunction, which is associated an increased risk sudden death. Experimental and clinical evidence suggest a crucial role dysfunction for both, progression high rate cardiovascular events in these patients. In present study, we evaluated heart variability (HRV), blood pressure (BPV) baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) ESRD patients normal controls. Methods: Nine (mean...

Contextualização: Adventistas do sétimo dia (ASD) tem sido alvo de estudos relacionados à saúde, principalmente, pelo estilo vida baseado nos Oito Remédios Naturais (8RN): nutrição, exercício, água, luz solar, temperança, ar puro, descanso e confiança. Quando comparados a não adventistas apresentam bons resultados. Porém, quando entre si, elementos sociodemográficos culturais influenciam no processo saúde-doença. Objetivo: Analisar o uso dos 8RN por ASD residentes município Manaus-AM suas...
Introduction: Hypertension is a risk factor for working memory (WM) impairment, and the Cogmed training has been tested as non-pharmacological alternative to WM rehabilitation. However, benefits of hypertensive population are unknown. Therefore, we aimed evaluate Cogmed’s effects on performance individuals with executive function (EF) impairment. Methods: We included 40 patients (aged 70 years, 68% female) EF They were randomized in 1:1 ratio receive ten weeks adaptive or non-adaptive...
