Association between healthy lifestyle and cognitive decline, all‐cause mortality, and mortality from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: a 10‐year population‐based prospective cohort study
A nationally representative, 10-year prospective cohort in China was employed to investigate the combined effects of lifestyle behaviors and cognitive function on all-cause, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular mortality. Both healthy lifestyle and better cognitive function were associated with a reduced risk of all-cause mortality. Even among individuals practicing optimal lifestyle behaviors, cognitive impairment significantly elevated the risk of all-cause and cerebrovascular mortality. These findings underscore the necessity of incorporating routine cognitive assessments and targeted interventions with healthy lifestyle practices aimed at reducing mortality risk in aging populations.
