Associations between depression and anxiety in midlife and dementia more than 30 years later: The HUNT Study
Older individuals with dementia had a higher prevalence of mixed anxiety- and depressive symptoms (A + D), both concurrently with and more than three decades prior to their dementia diagnosis.Older individuals with dementia had higher levels of anxiety, both concurrently and up to two decades prior to their dementia diagnosis.Depressive symptoms increased by time among those who developed dementia, but not among others.Results were similar for all cause dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and other types of dementia; however, for vascular dementia, the difference was not significant until dementia was present.
