“…Based on the selected 16,125 adults and the study sampling design, the total estimated population targeted by the study was ~57 million adults aged 50+ years. Detailed information on the SHARE study design (multistage sampling, recruitment procedures, response rates, ethical issues etc) is provided in earlier reports (BorschSupan et al 2013;Borsch-Supan et al 2005;Linardakis et al 2014;Linardakis et al 2013).…”

“…Four health-related risky behaviors (BRFs), were assessed, namely high body weight, smoking habits, physical inactivity and risky alcohol consumption (Fine et al 2004;Klein-Geltink et al 2006;Linardakis et al 2014;Linardakis et al 2013). …”

“…High body weight was determined based on the body mass index (BMI) classifications of overweight and obesity (BMI ≥25.0 kg/m 2 ) (World Health Organization 2010) and on selfreported current weight (kg) and height (m) (Linardakis et al 2014;Linardakis et al 2013). …”

“…Finally, risky alcohol consumption was assessed by frequency and period of use, separately by gender. More details about the assessment of the aforementioned BRFs are provided elsewhere (Linardakis et al 2014;Linardakis et al 2013). …”

“…These habits, namely behavioral risk factors (BRFs), individually or cumulatively increase the risk of development of NCDs, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, arthritis and/or some types of cancer (Fine et al 2004;KleinGeltink et al 2006;Linardakis et al 2013;World Health Organization 2010, 2011. High body weight, as a direct consequence of unhealthy dietary choices and physical inactivity, is globally responsible for 2.8 million deaths annually, while it is estimated that in 2030, mortality attributed to smoking will be doubled (from 3.4 to 6.8 million deaths) (World Health Organization 2010, 2011.…”

Estimations were based on the complex study design.Results: 90.7% of participants were seeing a general practitioner (GP) and 52.7% had 2+ BRFs.Adults with high body weight had lower odds of seeing a dentist (0. Conclusion: Adults with high body weight, those who smoked and were risky drinkers used fewer preventive health services. Primary prevention programmes should be developed to reduce BRF prevalence and promote preventive health services use in this population.Word count: 250

On behalf of the In-MINDD project team.Objective: Modifiable risk factors for dementia were recently identified and compiled in a systematic review. The 'Lifestyle for Brain Health' (LIBRA) score, reflecting someone's potential for dementia prevention, was studied in a large longitudinal population-based sample with respect to predicting cognitive change over an observation period of up to 16 years. Methods: Lifestyle for Brain Health was calculated at baseline for 949 participants aged 50-81 years from the Maastricht Ageing Study. The predictive value of LIBRA for incident dementia and cognitive impairment was examined by using Cox proportional hazard models and by testing its relation with cognitive decline. Results: Lifestyle for Brain Health predicted future risk of dementia, as well as risk of cognitive impairment. A one-point increase in LIBRA score related to 19% higher risk for dementia and 9% higher risk for cognitive impairment. LIBRA predicted rate of decline in processing speed, but not memory or executive functioning. Conclusions: Lifestyle for Brain Health (LIBRA) may help in identifying and monitoring risk status in dementia-prevention programmes, by targeting modifiable, lifestyle-related risk factors.
