“…Nine prospective cohort studies were included in the metaanalytic results (Hohman et al, 2016;Petkus et al, 2019;Pettigrew et al, 2017;Soldan et al, 2013Soldan et al, , 2015Udeh-Momoh et al, 2019;van Loenhoud et al, 2017van Loenhoud et al, , 2019Xu et al, 2019). In order to reduce variability between studies, we extracted the hazard ratios and corresponding confidence intervals associated with high CR at baseline after controlling for relevant structural (Petkus et al, 2019;Pettigrew et al, 2017;Soldan et al, 2015;van Loenhoud et al, 2017van Loenhoud et al, , 2019 or biomarker (Hohman et al, 2016;Soldan et al, 2013;Udeh-Momoh et al, 2019;Xu et al, 2019) covariates. Some studies examined the interaction of CR by neuropathology in addition to the main effect of CR in relation to risk of progression to dementia (Pettigrew et al, 2017;Soldan et al, 2013Soldan et al, , 2015Udeh-Momoh et al, 2019).…”
