Light at night exposure and risk of dementia conversion from mild cognitive impairment in a Northern Italy population
Our findings suggest that outdoor artificial LAN may increase dementia conversion, especially above 30 nW/cm<sup>2</sup>/sr, although the limited sample size suggests caution in the interpretation of the results, to be confirmed in larger investigations.
