RESUMO

IMPORTANCE: Genetic and lifestyle factors contribute to an individual's risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. However, it is unknown whether and how adherence to healthy lifestyles can mitigate the genetic risk of Alzheimer's. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to investigate whether adherence to healthy lifestyles can modify the impact of genetic predisposition to Alzheimer's disease on later-life cognitive decline. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: This prospective cohort study included 891 adults of European ancestry, aged 40 to 65, who were without dementia and had complete healthy-lifestyle and cognition data during the follow-up. Participants joined the Wisconsin Registry for Alzheimer's Prevention (WRAP) beginning in 2001. We conducted replication analyses using a subsample with similar baseline age range from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). EXPOSURES: We assessed participants' exposures using a continuous non-APOE polygenic risk score for Alzheimer's, a binary indicator for APOE-ε4 carrier status, and a weighted healthy-lifestyle score, including factors such as no current smoking, regular physical activity, healthy diet, light to moderate alcohol consumption, and frequent cognitive activities. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: We z-standardized cognitive scores for global (Preclinical Alzheimer's Cognitive Composite score 3 - PACC3) and domain-specific assessments (delayed recall and immediate learning). RESULTS: We followed 891 individuals for up to 10 years (mean [SD] baseline age, 58 [6] years, 31% male, 38% APOE-ε4 carriers). After false discovery rate (FDR) correction, we found statistically significant PRS × lifestyle × age interactions on preclinical cognitive decline but the evidence is stronger among APOE-ε4 carriers. Among APOE-ε4 carriers, PRS-related differences in overall and memory-related domains between people scoring 0-1 and 4-5 regarding healthy lifestyles became evident around age 67 after FDR correction. These findings were robust across several sensitivity analyses and were replicated in the population-based HRS. CONCLUSION: A favorable lifestyle can mitigate the genetic risk associated with current known non-APOE genetic variants for longitudinal cognitive decline, and these protective effects are particularly pronounced among APOE-ε4 carriers.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Health education is important for self-care in patients with heart failure. However, the evidence for the effect of distance education as an intervention to deliver instruction for patients after discharge through digital devices on self-care is limited. OBJECTIVES: In this study, our aim was to explore the effect of distance education on self-care in patients with heart failure. METHODS: We searched 11 electronic databases and 3 trial registries for randomized controlled trials with low risk of bias and high-quality evidence to compare the effect of usual and distance education on self-care. Quality appraisal was performed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Using the Review Manager 5.4 tool, a meta-analysis was conducted. Certainty of the evidence was rated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE). RESULTS: Fifteen articles were eligible for this study. Compared with usual education, distance education improved self-care maintenance (mean difference [MD], 6.62; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.93-9.31; GRADE, moderate quality), self-care management (MD, 5.10; 95% CI, 3.25-6.95; GRADE, high quality), self-care confidence (MD, 6.66; 95% CI, 4.82-8.49; GRADE, high quality), heart failure knowledge (MD, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.01-1.56; GRADE, moderate quality), and quality of life (MD, -5.35; 95% CI, -8.73 to -1.97; GRADE, moderate quality). Subgroup analysis revealed distance education was more effective than usual education in self-care when the intervention was conducted for 1 to 6 months, more than 3 times per month, and a single intervention lasting more than 30 minutes. CONCLUSIONS: This review shows the benefits of distance education on self-care, heart failure knowledge, and quality of life of patients with heart failure. The intervention duration, frequency, and duration of a single intervention could have affected the intervention effect.
