Improving cognitively healthy survival is important for achieving healthy aging. Therefore, it would be valuable to estimate the future risk of either incident dementia or death in community-dwelling older adults. This study aimed to develop a set of risk prediction models for either incident dementia or death that can be applied according to data availability across diverse clinical settings, using longitudinal data from comm...

Diet is widely considered essential in dementia, but its association with white matter lesions (WMLs) remains unclear. This cross-sectional study investigated the associations between dietary patterns, dementia, and WMLs in a large, nationwide, multicenter population of older Japanese adults. A total of 8,938 adults (aged ≥ 65; 73 ± 6.3 years old) from the Japan Prospective Studies Collaboration for Aging and Dementia (JPSC-AD...

Estuarine lagoons provide nursery habitats for marine fishes; however, small lagoons ( 2 ) have been overlooked. To evaluate the nursery function of small estuarine lagoons (SELs) for temperate marine fish, this study used seining on the coast of the northwestern Pacific (Kyushu, temperate Japan) during the juvenile seasons (winter and spring) to perform juvenile sampling at two scales and an abundance/size comparison of black...
