The relationship between playing musical instruments and cognitive trajectories: Analysis from a UK ageing cohort Int. J. Geriatr. Psychiatry (IF 4.0) Pub Date : 2024-01-28 Gaia Vetere, Gareth Williams, Clive Ballard, Byron Creese, Adam Hampshire, Abbie Palmer, Ellie Pickering, Megan Richards, Helen Brooker, Anne Corbett
The accumulation of age-associated cognitive deficits can lead to Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia. This is a major public health issue for the modern ageing population, as it impairs health, independence and overall quality of life. Keeping the brain active during life has been associated with an increased cognitive reserve, therefore reducing the risk of cognitive impairment in older

Association of white matter hyperintensities and clinical vascular burden with depressive symptoms in Black older adults Int. J. Geriatr. Psychiatry (IF 4.0) Pub Date : 2024-01-02 Hannah R. Bogoian, Sarah J. Barber, Sierra E. Carter, Chivon Mingo, Caterina Rosano, Vonetta M. Dotson
Black older adults have a higher vascular burden compared to non-Hispanic White (NHW) older adults, which may put them at risk for a form of depression known as vascular depression (VaDep). The literature examining VaDep in Black older adults is sparse. The current study addressed this important gap by examining whether vascular burden was associated with depressive symptoms in Black older adults.
