Circulating interleukin‐6 concentration and cognitive decline in old age: the PROSPER study

Puntos clave

Los puntos clave no están disponibles para este artículo en este momento.

Resumen

Higher circulating levels of IL-6 were associated with worse cognitive function and steeper cognitive decline and provide preliminary genetic evidence for a potential causal association. The findings support the importance of the need for further investigation of the IL-6 pathway in cognitive decline.
