Peripheral nerve damage is common in older adults and is associated with physical limitations and an increased risk of death
Peripheral nerve damage is common in older adults and is associated with physical limitations and an increased risk of death
Identifying the link between peripheral nerve damage and dementia can inform the clinical care and management of patients with dementia or peripheral neuropathy, and help identify high-risk patients with particularly poor health outcomes
A small study showed that peripheral neuropathy in the context of diabetes was not associated with dementia risk, however, there are limited data on the association between peripheral nerve damage and dementia risk in the general elderly population and in other comorbid subgroups
Researchers have investigated the association between lower extremity peripheral nerve damage and the risk of developing dementia in black and white older adults
The included black and white Health, Aging and Body Composition Study participants, aged 70-79 years, were free of dementia at enrollment
The included black and white Health, Aging and Body Composition Study participants, aged 70-79 years, were free of dementia at enrollment
- Among 2174 subjects (52% female, 35% black), 45% of subjects could not detect single fibers of 1.
Peripheral nerve damage, especially sensory impairment, was associated with a higher risk of dementia, even after adjusting for age and other health factorsSource:
