Menopause Symptom Severity Linked to Increased Dementia Risk
A University of Calgary study of 896 postmenopausal women revealed a correlation between the severity of menopause symptoms and the increased risk of developing dementia; researchers found that higher symptom counts correlated with poorer cognitive test scores, suggesting a need for further investig...

NHS to Re-evaluate Alzheimer's Drugs Amidst Cost and Efficacy Concerns
The NHS is reviewing its decision to block two Alzheimer's drugs, lecanemab and donanemab, which slow disease progression by up to 35 percent but cost approximately £1 billion annually, after public and advocacy group pressure.

Loss of Smell Linked to Increased Dementia Risk
A study reveals a strong link between loss of smell (anosmia or hyposmia) and increased dementia risk, with prevalence significantly rising with age; early detection is crucial, as anosmia is often irreversible if caused by neurodegeneration.

Faster Tau Protein Buildup Links to Higher Alzheimer's Risk in Women
Groundbreaking research reveals women's higher Alzheimer's risk stems from faster accumulation of tau protein in the brain, particularly in memory and visual processing regions, possibly linked to menopause-related hormonal changes; this discovery impacts Alzheimer's drug trials and necessitates fur...

Increased Physical Activity Linked to Lower Neuropsychiatric Disease Risk
A study of more than 73,000 adults found a correlation between increased physical activity and lower risk of neuropsychiatric diseases such as anxiety, depression, and dementia, regardless of exercise intensity; the research is slated to be presented at the American Academy of Neurology meeting in A...

Microplastics in Dementia Patients' Brains Linked to Microwave Use of Plastics
A new study links higher levels of microplastics in the brains of dementia patients to the use of plastic containers in microwaves, urging people to switch to safer alternatives like glass or stainless steel to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals and microplastics that may increase dementia risk an...

Switching to Tap Water Could Reduce Microplastic Intake by 90%
Canadian research indicates that switching to filtered tap water can reduce annual microplastic intake by 90%, from approximately 90,000 to 4,000 particles, based on a study finding up to 7 grams of plastic in some human brains, with higher levels in those with dementia.

Study Links Antidepressant Use to Faster Cognitive Decline in Dementia Patients
A Swedish study of 4271 dementia patients found a correlation between antidepressant use and faster cognitive decline, as measured by the Mini-Mental State Examination, but researchers caution against altering treatment based on this observational study and suggest further research is needed.

Physical Activity Significantly Lowers Risk of Multiple Diseases
A study of 73,411 UK adults found that moderate-to-intense physical activity (at least 3 METs) reduced the risk of dementia, stroke, anxiety, depression, and sleep disorders by 14-40%, while increased sedentary time raised the risk by 5-54%.
