Their results also showed significant positive correlations with all-cause dementia risk but not when Alzheimer's disease-related dementia and vascular dementia were considered separately. %K Longitudinal Studies %K Dementia, Vascular %K Alzheimer Disease %K Incidence %K Cohort Studies %K Cognitive Dysfunction %~
