Association of chronic musculoskeletal pain, APOE Ɛ4 genotype, and analgesics with the risk of dementia: a population-based prospective cohort study
Chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) is associated with the risk of dementia, yet little is known about whether this association is modified by APOE genotype and whether analgesics may mitigate the risk effect of CMP on dementia. This prospective cohort study, included 415 072 participants from UK Biobank, found that CMP was associated with a higher risk of dementia, and this association may be modified by the APOE genotype. Analgesics may not mitigate the risk effect of CMP on dementia.
