Social determinants of health, behavioral factors, and incident dementia: a prospective cohort study

While individual associations between social determinants of health (SDoH), behavioral factors, and incident dementia have been established, the cumulative effect of multiple unfavorable SDoH and their interaction with behavioral factors remains poorly understood. We aimed to examine the independent and joint associations of SDoH and behavioral factors with incident dementia risk in middle-aged and older adults. This prospective cohort study utilized data from the Health and Retirement Study. Pa
