Diet decreases dementia risk score in humans.
“In both DiRECT and DIADEM‐I a significant difference in the change in dementia risk score from baseline to 1‐year between the trial arms was observed”

Lifestyle recommendations decrease dementia risk score in humans (Z=‐3.98, p < .001).
“At Y1, women showed lower overall total and supplemented risk scores (Z=‐3.98, p < .001; Z=‐2.855, p = .004).”

Dementia risk score predicts dementia in silico (balanced accuracy 74.59%).
“For predicting future MCI progression, the balance accuracy was 71.17 % for MRI‐only model, 71.79% for the PET‐only model, and 74.59% for the fused model”

Verbal learning
downin humans1
Dementia risk score is associated with verbal learning in humans (r = ‐0.27, p = .07).
“Greater BL risk scores were marginally related to poorer Y1 verbal learning and memory ( r = ‐0.27, p = .07; r=‐0.27, p = .082).”

Dementia risk score predicts predictive accuracy in humans.
“Preliminary analyses demonstrate high concordance between traditional dementia risk scores and biomarker profiles in African populations, validating their predictive accuracy following necessary contextual modifications.”
