Association of social contact with dementia and cognition: 28-year follow-up of the Whitehall II cohort study.

Andrew Sommerlad | Séverine Sabia | Archana Singh-Manoux | Glyn Lewis | Gill Livingston
PLoS medicine | 2019

There is need to identify targets for preventing or delaying dementia. Social contact is a potential target for clinical and public health studies, but previous observational studies had short follow-up, making findings susceptible to reverse causation bias. We therefore examined the association of social contact with subsequent incident dementia and cognition with 28 years' follow-up.
