marginally higher than the 1·39 used previously.11 For depression, two recent meta-analyses provided somewhat lower estimates than the 1·90 used previously.12 In one meta-analysis13 the estimated combined RR was 1·66 (95% CI 1·29–2·24) based on data from four prospective cohort studies, whereas in the other14 it was 1·65 (1·42–1·92) based on data from 23 studies. The latter estimate was used because it was based on a more
comprehensive analysis. The appendix provides further details of revised estimates. The prevalence of each of the seven risk factors worldwide and in the USA, UK, and Europe were taken from various population-derived sources using the same age ranges as Barnes and Yaff e.8 Panel 1 describes the defi nitions used for each of the risk factors. The appendix lists sources for the RRs and prevalence rates used.
Statistical analysisAssuming there is a causal relation between a risk factor and a disease, the PAR is the proportion of cases of a disease in the population attributable to the risk factor. The PAR for each risk factor was calculated using Levin’s formula:16
where P is the population prevalence of the risk factor.This formula is intended for unadjusted estimates, but
since the RRs were obtained from multiple sources, other methods were not available. The combined estimate of the PAR used by Barnes and Yaff e8 assumed independence of risk factors:
PARcombined = 1 – Π 1 – PAR
The assumption of independence of risk factors is almost certainly biased, but was necessary because of an absence of other methods. To account for non - independence of the risk factors, a novel modi-fi cation of the formula was used, which involved weighting the PAR for each risk factor:
PARAdjustedCombined = 1 – Π 1 – (w × PAR)
where the weight w was computed using the estimate of 1 minus the proportion of the variance shared with the other risk factors (ie, communality).
The communality for each risk factor was estimated using data for adults aged 16 years and older from the Health Survey for England 2006,17 in which all seven risk factors were measured. The presence of each risk factor, ignoring the age ranges, was used to calculate the RRs. The communality was calculated via principal components analysis of the inter-risk-factor tetrachoric correlation matrix. Specifi cally, it was calculated as the square of the loadings on the fi rst two principal components since both had eigenvalues greater than one—the Kaiser criterion for selecting the number of components to extract.18 Together, the two principal components explained 50% of the total variance between the risk factors, which suggests substantial overlap. The communalities for each risk factor and self-reported risk factor prevalence from the Health Survey for England 2006 are given in table 1.
The total number of Alzheimer’s disease cases attributable to each risk factor was estimated by

SummaryBackground Modifi able vascular and lifestyle-related risk factors have been associated with dementia risk in observational studies. In the Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER), a proof-of-concept randomised controlled trial, we aimed to assess a multidomain approach to prevent cognitive decline in at-risk elderly people from the general population.
Methods In a double-blind randomised controlled trial we enrolled individuals aged 60–77 years recruited from previous national surveys. Inclusion criteria were CAIDE (Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging and Dementia) Dementia Risk Score of at least 6 points and cognition at mean level or slightly lower than expected for age. We randomly assigned participants in a 1:1 ratio to a 2 year multidomain intervention (diet, exercise, cognitive training, vascular risk monitoring), or a control group (general health advice). Computer-generated allocation was done in blocks of four (two individuals randomly allocated to each group) at each site. Group allocation was not actively disclosed to participants and outcome assessors were masked to group allocation. The primary outcome was change in cognition as measured through comprehensive neuropsychological test battery (NTB) Z score. Analysis was by modifi ed intention to treat (all participants with at least one post-baseline observation). This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01041989.
Findings Between Sept 7, 2009, and Nov 24, 2011, we screened 2654 individuals and randomly assigned 1260 to the intervention group (n=631) or control group (n=629). 591 (94%) participants in the intervention group and 599 (95%) in the control group had at least one post-baseline assessment and were included in the modifi ed intention-to-treat analysis. Estimated mean change in NTB total Z score at 2 years was 0·20 (SE 0·02, SD 0·51) in the intervention group and 0·16 (0·01, 0·51) in the control group. Between-group diff erence in the change of NTB total score per year was 0·022 (95% CI 0·002–0·042, p=0·030). 153 (12%) individuals dropped out overall. Adverse events occurred in 46 (7%) participants in the intervention group compared with six (1%) participants in the control group; the most common adverse event was musculoskeletal pain (32 [5%] individuals for intervention vs no individuals for control).
Interpretation Findings from this large, long-term, randomised controlled trial suggest that a multidomain intervention could improve or maintain cognitive functioning in at-risk elderly people from the general population.

IntroductionLate-life cognitive impairment and dementia have become serious human, social, and economic burdens.1 WHO1 and the G8 Dementia Summit (2013)2 emphasised prevention as a key element to counteract the dementia epidemic. Findings from observational studies have linked several vascular and lifestyle-related risk factors with increased risk of late-life cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, the most common cause of dementia.3 A third of Alzheimer’s disease cases worldwide are estimated to be
attributable to seven modifi able factors (low education, midlife hypertension, midlife obesity, diabetes, physical inactivity, smoking, and depression), providing prevention opportunities.3 However, randomised controlled trials are desperately needed to confi rm these associations and investigate strategies to maintain cognitive functioning and prevent cognitive impairment.4,5
Previous single-domain prevention trials for cognitive impairment and dementia have yielded mainly negative results.4 Some positive associations with cognition were

data in the study. The report was approved for submission by all authors. The corresponding author had fi nal responsibility for the decision to submit for publication.
ResultsBetween Sept 7, 2009, and Nov 24, 2011, 2654 individuals were screened and 1260 were randomly assigned to the intensive intervention group (n=631) or control group (n=629; fi gure 1). 1168 (93%) participants completed the 12 month assessments, and 1105 (88%) participants
completed the 24 month assessments. 16 individuals who withdrew from the study came to the fi nal cognitive evaluation. The intervention was completed in February, 2014. The mITT analyses included 1190 participants (94% of all enrolled participants). Dropout rates were similar in the intervention (87 [14%] participants) and control (66 [11%] participants) groups (p=0·07). The main reasons for dropout were health-related (56 [37%] participants), lack of time or motivation (22 [14%]), and diffi culties in arranging participation (18 [12%]). Ten individuals died during the study.
Baseline characteristics have previously been described in detail.15 The intervention and control groups were similar at baseline (table 1; baseline characteristics for intention-to-treat population are provided in the appendix). The mean age of the population was 69·3 years (SD 4·7), education 10·0 years (SD 3·4), and mini mental state examination score 26·8 points (SD 2·0). Mean cognitive performance was less than 0·5 SD below the average level for the cognitively normal Finnish pop ulation.15 Several vascular and lifestyle risk factors were present.
We noted a signifi cant benefi cial eff ect of the intervention for the primary outcome (fi gure 2, appendix). Estimated mean change in NTB total Z score at 2 years was 0·20 (SE 0·01, SD 0·51) in the intervention group and 0·16 (0·01, 0·51) in the control group. The mean diff erence between groups (group × time interaction) in change of NTB total score per year was 0·022 (95%CI 0·002–0·042, p=0·030). Improvement in NTB total score after 24 months was 25% higher in the intervention group than in the control group. The results remained unchanged in sensi tivity analyses, including intention-to-treat analyses (appendix).
We also noted a signifi cant intervention eff ect for the secondary cognitive outcomes of executive functioning (p=0·039) and processing speed (p=0·029; fi gure 2, appendix). Improvement in executive functioning was 83% higher, and in processing speed 150% higher, in the intervention group than in the control group. The intervention was not associated with signifi cant change in the prespecifi ed memory domain.
Post-hoc abbreviated memory score analyses showed a signifi cant between-group diff erence (p=0·036; appendix). NTB total score fell in 307 (28%) participants between the assessments at baseline and 24 months. Risk of cognitive decline was increased in the control group compared with intervention group for NTB total score (odds ratio 1·31, 95% CI 1·01–1·71), executive functioning, and processing speed (table 2).
We also noted signifi cant intervention eff ects after 2 years for other secondary outcomes such as BMI, dietary habits, and physical activity (appendix).
Self-reported adherence (any vs no participation) to intervention domains was high: nutrition, 579 (100%) participants; physical exercise, 523 (90%) participants;

Adverse events occurred in 46 (7%) participants in the intervention group compared with six (1%) participants in the control group; the most common adverse event was musculoskeletal pain (32 [5%] individuals for intervention vs no individuals for control).
Interpretation Findings from this large, long-term, randomised controlled trial suggest that a multidomain intervention could improve or maintain cognitive functioning in at-risk elderly people from the general population.

IntroductionLate-life cognitive impairment and dementia have become serious human, social, and economic burdens.1 WHO1 and the G8 Dementia Summit (2013)2 emphasised prevention as a key element to counteract the dementia epidemic. Findings from observational studies have linked several vascular and lifestyle-related risk factors with increased risk of late-life cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, the most common cause of dementia.3 A third of Alzheimer’s disease cases worldwide are estimated to be
attributable to seven modifi able factors (low education, midlife hypertension, midlife obesity, diabetes, physical inactivity, smoking, and depression), providing prevention opportunities.3 However, randomised controlled trials are desperately needed to confi rm these associations and investigate strategies to maintain cognitive functioning and prevent cognitive impairment.4,5
Previous single-domain prevention trials for cognitive impairment and dementia have yielded mainly negative results.4 Some positive associations with cognition were

In participants with untreated hypertension who were adherent to the intervention, dementia occurred in 22 (4%) of 512 in the intervention group compared with 35 (7%) of 471 in the control group (HR 0∙54, 95% CI 0∙32–0∙92; p=0∙02; appendix). In participants with a history free from cardiovascular disease who were adherent to the intervention, dementia occurred in 45 (5%) of participants in the intervention group and in 69 (7%) of 934 participants in the control group (HR 0·64, 95% CI 0·44–0·94; p=0·02; appendix).
Disability did not diff er between groups, with ALDS scores at 6 years of 85∙7 in both study groups (adjusted mean diff erence –0∙02, 95% CI –0∙38 to 0∙42; p=0∙93;
table 3). 309 (16%) of 1885 participants died in the intervention group, compared with 269 (16%) of 1634 participants in the control group (HR 0∙98, 95% CI 0∙80–1∙18; p=0∙81; table 2). Cardiovascular disease events occurred in 273 (19%) of 1469 participants in the intervention group and 228 (17%) of 1307 participants in the control group (HR 1∙06, 95% CI 0∙86–1∙31; p=0∙57; table 2).
Cognition and the number of depressive symptoms did not diff er between both groups (table 3). Systolic blood pressure decreased more in the intervention group than in the control group (adjusted mean diff erence –2∙06 mm Hg, 95% CI –3∙21 to –0∙90; p=0∙0005). BMI, total cholesterol, and LDL cholesterol decreased in both groups, but diff erences were not signifi cant (appendix).
Antihypertensive medication was started in 329 (58%) of 568 participants in the intervention group and 231 (48%) of 479 in the control group, irrespective of baseline blood pressure (odds ratio [OR] 1∙48, 95% CI 1∙16–1∙89; p=0∙002). In participants with hypertension who were not using antihypertensive drugs at baseline, these proportions were 295 (67%) of 439 in the intervention group compared with 203 (56%) of 364 in the control group (OR 1∙62, 95% CI 1∙22–2∙17; p=0∙001). These medication changes were associated with substantial eff ects on blood pressure in both the intervention and control groups (appendix). Changes in other medication and lifestyle variables are given in the appendix.
There was no excess mortality in either group. The median number of hospital admissions per 1000 participants per year was 117 in the intervention group and 108 in the control group (adjusted mean diff erence –3, 95% CI –24 to 18; p=0∙78). There were no signifi cant diff erences between groups in frequencies of serious adverse events for hypotension, syncope, electrolyte abnormalities, injurious falls, or acute kidney injury or failure (appendix).
DiscussionIn this randomised controlled trial, we recorded no eff ect of 6∙7 years of nurse-led intensive vascular care on incident all-cause dementia. We also observed no eff ect on mortality, cardiovascular disease, or disability, despite a greater improvement in systolic blood pressure in the intervention group compared with the control group.
There are several possible explanations for this fi nding. First, the contrast between study groups in cardiovascular risk reduction was relatively small. As a result of the pragmatic nature of the study, the intensity of the vascular care that was delivered might have been insuffi cient to induce relevant eff ects on lifestyle change. Moreover, in primary care settings already providing high standards of cardiovascular risk management, it might be diffi cult to improve overall effi cacy, especially for secondary cardiovascular prevention. This theory is supported by subgroup analyses showing the strongest eff ects of the intervention in participants with
Figure 2: Kaplan-Meier plot of cumulative incidence of dementiaTo allow participants recruited early into the trial to continue follow-up until the 6-year assessment of the last participant was completed, the study was extended for participants randomised early (ie, in 2006–07). The hazard ratio (HR) refers to an analysis including all participants, up to 8 years of follow-up. The period beyond the planned 6-year follow-up, concerning few participants, is shaded.

NatCen Social Research 2
Summary This paper presents findings on attitudes to dementia in Britain. While the majority of people have known someone with dementia and knowledge of the symptoms of dementia is high, there are clear gaps in public knowledge of the risk factors. There is also evidence of stigmatising attitudes towards people living with dementia.
52% choose dementia as either their first, second or third priority from a list of health conditions for doctors and scientists to try to prevent. 12% see dementia as the highest priority for prevention.
Public knowledge of risk factors for dementia is considerably lower than knowledge of symptoms of dementia. 21% fail to identify any of seven risk factors correctly, while 43% identify just one or two risk factors.
Around half of people agree that “people with dementia can enjoy life to the full” (52%) and disagree that “I would find it hard to talk to someone with dementia” (57%). A substantial majority hold relatively negative views about caring for someone with dementia. Only 39% agree that “caring for someone with dementia is often very rewarding” and as many as 71% agree that “caring for someone with dementia often means that your own health suffers”.
