A comprehensive study on young-onset dementia (YOD) reveals 15 lifestyle and health factors linked to its risk, including low socioeconomic status, social isolation, hearing impairment, stroke, diabetes, heart disease, depression, vitamin D deficiency, high C-reactive protein levels, alcohol use, education level, and physical frailty.
This research highlights the potential for targeted interventions to reduce YOD risk and emphasizes the importance of addressing modifiable risk factors for better prevention and treatment strategies.
