Two authors searched major electronic databases from inception until 10/14/2015 for longitudinal, open-label and randomised double-blind placebo controlled (randomised controlled trials (RCTs)) studies of AChEIs in patients with dementia reporting nutritional status outcome data. Out of 3551 initial hits, 25 studies (12 open-label trials, 9 RCTs and 4 longitudinal studies) including 10 792 patients with dementia were metaanalysed. In longitudinal studies (median follow-up 6 months), a significant cumulative incidence of weight loss between baseline and follow-up evaluation was observed (studies= 2; 5%; 95% CI 1% to 34%, p< 0.0001; I2= 95%). These findings were confirmed in open-label trials (6%; 95% CI 4% to 7%, p< 0.0001; I-2= 78%). In 9 RCTs (median followup 5 months), those taking AChEIs more frequently experienced weight loss than participants taking placebo (OR= 2.18; 95% CI 1.50 to 3.17, p< 0.0001; I-2= 29%). AChEIs therapy contributes to weight loss in patients with dementia, with a 2-fold increased risk observed in the meta-analysis of RCTs. Clinicians should carefully consider the benefit and risk of prescribing AChEIs. Nutritional status should be routinely evaluated in patients with dementia treated with AChEIs.Publication Metadata only Body Mass Index and Mild Cognitive Impairment Among Middle-Aged and Older Adults from Low- and Middle-Income Countries.(2021-12-10T00:00:00Z) Smith, Lee; Shin, Jae Il; Oh, Hans; Carmichael, Christina; Jacob, Louis; Stefanac, Sinisa; Lindsay, Rosie K; Soysal, PINAR; Veronese, Nicola; Tully, Mark A; Butler, Laurie; Barnett, Yvonne; Koyanagi, Ai; SOYSAL, PINARBackground: The effect of weight modification on future dementia risk is currently a subject of debate and may be modified by age. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) status with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) (a preclinical stage of dementia) in middle-aged and older adults residing in six low- and middle-income countries using nationally representative data. Methods: Cross-sectional data from the Study on Global Ageing and Adult Health (SAGE) were analyzed. MCI was defined using the National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association criteria. BMI (kg/m2) was based on measured weight and height and categorized as: underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5-24.9), overweight (25.0-29.9), and obese (≥30.0). Multivariable logistic regression analysis and meta-analysis were conducted to assess associations. Results: Data on 32,715 individuals aged ≥50 years with preservation in functional abilities were analyzed [mean (SD) age 62.1 (15.6) years; 51.7% females]. Among those aged 50-64 years, compared to normal weight, underweight (OR = 1.44; 95% CI = 1.14-1.81), overweight (OR = 1.17; 95% CI = 1.002-1.37), and obesity (OR = 1.46; 95% CI = 1.09-1.94) were all significantly associated with higher odds for MCI. In those aged ≥65 years, underweight (OR = 0.71; 95% CI = 0.54-0.95) and overweight (OR = 0.72; 95% CI = 0.55-0.94) were associated with significantly lower odds for MCI, while obesity was not significantly associated with MCI. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest that the association between BMI and MCI is likely moderated by age. Future longitudinal studies are required to confirm or refute the present findings before recommendations for policy and practice can be made.Publication Metadata only Urinary incontinence and quality of life: A longitudinal analysis from the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing(2022-06-01T00:00:00Z) Veronese, Nicola; Smith, Lee; Pizzol, Damiano; SOYSAL, PINAR; Maggi, Stefania; Ilie, Petre-Cristian; Dominguez, Ligia J.; Barbagallo, Mario; SOYSAL, PINARObjectives: To explore the longitudinal association between urinary incontinence (UI) and quality of life (QoL) in the English Longitudinal Study on Ageing, a large study of older UK adults with ten years of follow-up. Study design: Cohort study.Main outcomes interest: To determine the presence of UI, participants reported whether they had lost urine beyond their control in the last 12 months. Participants also reported whether UI lasted more than one month, indicating a more chronic problem. QoL was measured using the CASP (control, autonomy, self-realisation and pleasure)-19, with higher values indicating a higher QoL. Results: Of the 8028 participants (mean age: 65.2 years; 56.7% females) included, 1172 reported UI at baseline. No significant differences in CASP-19 score were found at baseline (p = 0.24). In people with UI, a significant decline in CASP-19 score (from 34.3 +/- 14.0 at baseline to 30.9 +/- 16.1 in wave 7) (p = 0.016) was observed. The results were stronger in men than in women and with a longer duration of UI. Conclusion: UI was associated with poor QoL over ten years of follow-up in a large cohort of UK participants. Our findings further suggest the importance of UI as a potential risk factor for poor QoL.Publication Metadata only Physical multimorbidity predicts the onset and persistence of anxiety: A prospective analysis of the Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing.(2022-04-19T00:00:00Z) Smith, Lee; Shin, Jae Il; Jacob, Louis; Schuch, Felipe; Pizzol, Damiano; López Sánchez, Guillermo F; Soysal, PINAR; Tully, Mark A; Butler, Laurie T; Barnett, Yvonne; Veronese, Nicola; Park, Seoyeon; Koyanagi, Ai; SOYSAL, PINARPublication Metadata only Multimorbidity and Anxiety Symptoms among Adults Aged 50 Years and Over from Six Low- and Middle-Income Countries(2021-10-01T00:00:00Z) Smıth, Lee; F.
