Dementia
Music-based interventions have long been hailed as a potential therapy for people with dementia, with positive effects on mood and wellbeing reported in previous studies. However, the specific benefits of music compared to non-musical activities remain unclear. A recent study, published on osf.io, aimed to isolate the music-specific positive

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health have conducted a study on the compression of cognitive decline and cognitive resilience in extreme longevity. The investigators used data from 13,999 deceased participants from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center cohort, including 8,146 with neuropathological data.

Older adults who regularly listen to music may experience a reduced risk of dementia and cognitive decline, according to a Monash University-led study. The research, led by Emma Jaffa and Professor Joanne Ryan, analyzed data from the ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE) study and found that always

Recent research conducted by investigators at McGill University suggests that incretin-based drugs, namely glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, may have neuroprotective effects and be associated with a decreased risk of dementia among patients with type 2 diabetes. Using data from the Clinical

Researchers at University College London have conducted a multicenter, single-masked, randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of a lower-intensity, personally-tailored dementia prevention program in improving cognition in adults with subjective cognitive decline or mild cognitive impairment. The trial, known as APPLE-Tree, promoted healthy lifestyles, social connections, enjoyable activities, and

Research from the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University has found that delaying treatment with sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) until HbA1c levels reach 9% may forfeit protection against dementia. The study, which analyzed data from 150 health systems worldwide, suggests that earlier use of
