17 Modifiable Risk Factors Linked to Dementia, Stroke, and Late-Life Depression
Harvard researchers found 17 modifiable risk factors shared by dementia, stroke, and late-life depression, with high blood pressure and kidney disease showing the greatest impact; conversely, physical activity and leisure time cognitive activity showed the lowest risk.
