Association of lifestyle, dietary pattern, and liver function with cognition in older adults: findings from a cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Single lifestyle, dietary pattern, and liver function are closely associated with cognitive ability, yet their combined influences on cognition remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of lifestyle, dietary patterns, and liver function on cognitive impairment among older adults.

Methods

One thousand and ninety-six older adults were recruited from communities. Among them, 630 participants completed cognitive function tests. The lifestyle and dietary patterns of the participants were assessed using a healthy lifestyle score (HLS) and a healthy dietary score (HDS). Liver function was assessed using four predictive indicators: AST/HDL-C, ALT/HDL-C, HSI, and ZJU. Cognitive function was measured using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Logistic
