    Abstract Although a relationship between traditional cardiovascular risk factors and stroke has long been recognized, these risk factors likely play a role in other aspects of brain health. Clinical stroke is only the tip of the iceberg of vascular brain injury that includes covert infarcts, white matter hyperintensities, and microbleeds. Furthermore, an individual's risk for not only stroke but poor brain health includes not only these traditional vascular risk factors but also lifestyle and genetic factors. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarize the state of the evidence on traditional and nontraditional vascular risk factors and their contributions to brain health. Additionally, we will review important modifiers that interact with these risk factors to increase, or, in some cases, reduce risk of adverse brain health outcomes, with an emphasis on genes and biomarkers associated with Alzheimer disease. Finally, we will consider the importance of social determinants of health in brain health outcomes.

    Abstract Background and objectives: Neurotrophic factors (NTFs) play an important role in Alzheimer disease (AD) pathophysiology. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are important NTFs. However, a direct link of BDNF and VEGF circulating levels with in vivo measures of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau burden remains to be elucidated. We explored the relationship of BDNF and VEGF serum levels with future brain Aβ and tau pathology in a cohort of cognitively healthy, predominantly middle-aged adults and tested for possible effect modifications by sex and menopausal status.
    Methods: This cross-sectional analysis was conducted using data from the Framingham Heart Study (FHS), a community-based cohort study. The study sample included cognitively healthy participants from the FHS Offspring and Third-generation cohorts. BDNF and VEGF were measured in the third-generation cohort during examination cycles 2 (2005-2008) and 1 (2002-2005), respectively, and in the offspring cohort during examination cycle 7 (1998-2001). Participants underwent
    Results: The sample included 414 individuals (mean age = 41 ± 9 years; 51% female). Continuous measures of BDNF and VEGF were associated with tau signal in the rhinal region after adjustment for potential confounders (β = -0.15 ± 0.06,
    Discussion: This study demonstrates a robust association between BDNF and VEGF serum levels with in vivo measures of tau almost 2 decades later. These findings add to mounting evidence from preclinical studies suggesting a role of NTFs as valuable blood biomarkers for AD risk prediction.

    Abstract Background: Low-grade chronic inflammation associated with unhealthy diets may lead to cognitive aging.
    Objectives: We evaluated whether higher long-term adherence to an empirical dietary inflammatory pattern (EDIP) was associated with lower cognitive function after age 70 y in the Nurses' Health Study.
    Methods: A total of 16,058 older (mean ± SD age: 74 ± 2 y) highly educated (≥ bachelor degree) White women completed up to 5 validated 116-item food-frequency questionnaires. An EDIP score, previously derived with the use of reduced rank regression to predict circulating inflammatory markers (i.e., C-reactive protein, TNF-α receptor 2, and IL-6), was computed based on 9 anti-inflammatory and 9 proinflammatory components. A long-term EDIP score was calculated by averaging across 5 exams. The EDIP score was categorized into quintiles, taking the first (anti-inflammatory) quintile as the reference category. Cognitive testing was performed through telephone interviews over 4 follow-up exams (1995-2008). A composite global cognition score, a composite verbal memory score, and the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS) were calculated and averaged across the 4 exams (6 y of follow-up). Multivariable linear regressions were used to examine longitudinal relations under study.
    Results: Higher long-term EDIP scores (i.e., more proinflammatory) were significantly associated with worse performance on global cognitive function (P-trend= 0.018) and TICS (P-trend= 0.004) after adjustment for demographic and lifestyle factors. The associations became nonsignificant after additional adjustments for disease (related) risk factors for dementia. No association was observed between the EDIP score and verbal memory.
    Conclusions: We observed no relation between long-term EDIP scores and averaged global cognitive function and verbal memory among older women. Our findings suggest no relation between long-term adherence to a proinflammatory diet and cognitive function in a large population of mostly White and generally highly educated older women. Future studies are encouraged to investigate the relation between inflammatory diets and cognitive function in other races/ethnicities and men, and over a longer follow-up period.

    Abstract Introduction: Early risk stratification for clinical dementia could lead to preventive therapies. We identified and validated a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signature for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias (ARDR).
    Methods: An MRI ADRD signature was derived from cortical thickness maps in Framingham Heart Study (FHS) participants with AD dementia and matched controls. The signature was related to the risk of ADRD and cognitive function in FHS. Results were replicated in the University of California Davis Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (UCD-ADRC) cohort.
    Results: Participants in the bottom quartile of the signature had more than three times increased risk for ADRD compared to those in the upper three quartiles (P < 0.001). Greater thickness in the signature was related to better general cognition (P < 0.01) and episodic memory (P = 0.01). Results replicated in UCD-ADRC.
    Discussion: We identified a robust neuroimaging biomarker for persons at increased risk of ADRD. Other cohorts will further test the validity of this biomarker.

    Abstract Background: Apathy is among the neuropsychiatric symptoms frequently observed in people with cognitive impairment. It has been postulated to be a potential predictor of conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease (AD).
    Objective: To detect conversion rates from MCI to AD, and to determine the effect of apathy on the progression to AD in patients with MCI enrolled in the Texas Alzheimer's Research and Care Consortium (TARCC) cohort.
    Methods: Apathy was determined by a positive response to the respective item in the Neuropsychiatric Inventory -Questionnaire (NPI-Q) completed by family members or caregivers. The final dataset included 2,897 observations from 1,092 individuals with MCI at the baseline. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were estimated to provide indices of the probability of conversion to AD over time across all individuals as well as between those with and without apathy. Cox proportional hazards regression measured the hazard associated with apathy and several other predictors of interest.
    Results: Over a period of 8.21 years, 17.3% of individuals had conversion from MCI to AD (n = 190 of 1,092 total individuals) across observations. The median time-to-conversion across all participants was 6.41 years. Comparing individuals with apathy (n = 158) versus without apathy (n = 934), 36.1% and 14.2% had conversion to AD, respectively. The median time-to-conversion was 3.79 years for individuals with apathy and 6.83 years for individuals without apathy. Cox proportional hazards regression found significant effects of several predictors, including apathy, on time-to-conversion. Age and cognitive performance were found to moderate the relationship between apathy and time-to-conversion.
    Conclusions: Apathy is associated with progression from MCI to AD, suggesting that it might improve risk prediction and aid targeted intervention delivery.
