  1. Biological brain aging mediates cognitive function in humans.

    “Furthermore, a mediation analysis revealed that biological brain aging mediated the relationship of vascular risk factors - including hypertension, glucose, obesity, and smoking - to cognitive and motor function.”

  2. Biological brain aging impairs cognitive function in humans (94.7% of shared variance).

    “The PLS identified a latent dimension linking higher markers of biological brain aging to poorer cognitive and motor performances, accounting for 94.7% of shared variance.”
