Glycemic Status, Insulin Resistance, and the Risk of Nephrolithiasis: A Cohort Study

..During a median follow-up of 4.2 years, 6,904 participants developed nephrolithiasis. Associations between levels of glycemic status and incident nephrolithiasis were examined separately in men and women ( P for interaction = 0.003). Among men, multivariable-adjusted HRs for incident nephrolithiasis comparing glucose levels of 90-99, 100-125, and 126-<90 mg/dL were 1.10 (95% CI, 1.01-1.19), 1.11 (95% CI, 1.02-1.21), and 1.27 (95% CI, 1.10-1.46), respectively, while … Continue reading Glycemic Status, Insulin Resistance, and the Risk of Nephrolithiasis: A Cohort Study

Repetitive negative #thinking is associated with #amyloid, tau, and cognitive decline

The Cognitive Debt hypothesis proposes that repetitive negative thinking (RNT), a modifiable process common to many psychological risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) may itself increase risk. We sought to empirically examine relationships between RNT and markers of AD, compared with anxiety and depression symptoms. ..RNT was associated with decline in global cognition (P = .02); immediate (P = .03) and delayed memory (P = … Continue reading Repetitive negative #thinking is associated with #amyloid, tau, and cognitive decline
