Caffeine and Cognitive Decline in Elderly Women at High Vascular Risk

Abstract: Background Persons with vascular disorders are at higher risk of cognitive decline. Objective To determine whether caffeine may be associated with cognitive decline reduction in elderly at high vascular risk. Methods We included 2475 women aged 65+ years in the Women’s Antioxidant Cardiovascular Study, a randomized trial of antioxidants and B vitamins for cardiovascular disease secondary prevention. We ascertained regular caffeine intake at baseline (1995–1996) using a validated 116 item-food frequency que… Show more

“…Besides, caffeine can act against neurodegenerative changes in the brain via positive effects on serum lipids [47,48]. For another example, a recent observational study demonstrated that caffeine intake had a better cognitive maintenance in 2,475 elderly women with concomitant cardiovascular diseases or ≥3 coronary risk factors (i.e., diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, or obesity) [49]. …”

“…Findings from the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS) on 4,809 participants aged 65 and older also suggested a modestly reduced rates of cognitive decline assessed with the modified MMSE (3MS) over a median follow up of 7.9 years for some, but not all, levels of coffee and tea consumption for women (57). Furthermore, for 2,475 women aged 65+ years in the Women's Antioxidant Cardiovascular Study, higher caffeine intake (approximately 4 cups of coffee/day) was related to moderately better cognitive maintenance over 5 years in older women with vascular disorders (60). Finally, also in the longitudinal component of the SLAS, a more frequent tea consumption of all kinds was associated with a lower risk of cognitive decline in a follow-up of 1-2 years (44), while in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), daily tea drinking was associated with better cognitive function measured by verbal fluency test during a 7-year followup period on 7,139 participants aged 80 to 115 years (59).…”

“…cross-sectional (41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50) and longitudinal (44,(51)(52)(53)(54)(55)(56)(57)(58)(59)(60)(61) populationbased studies suggested a protective effect of coffee, tea, or caffeine use against cognitive impairment/decline, although, the association was not found in all cognitive domains investigated ( Table 3). The findings on the association of coffee, tea, and caffeine consumption or plasma caffeine levels with incident MCI and its progression to dementia were too limited to draw any conclusion (55,61) (Table 3).…”

“…An EFSA scientific panel concluded there was sufficient evidence to establish a causal relationship between caffeine and an increase in endurance performance, endurance capacity, alertness and attention, and a reduction in the perceived exertion/effort during exercise (EFSA 2011a(EFSA , 2011b. Caffeine has also been linked to a lower risk of Parkinson's disease (Qi & Li 2014) and a slower rate of age-related cognitive decline (Vercambre et al 2013). Reviews of the beneficial effects of human caffeine consumption are available elsewhere (Glade 2010;Heckman et al 2010;Shen 2012;Cano-Marquina et al 2013).…”
