Why the study?
Accurate and accessible risk assessment tools are essential for dementia management, and it was unknown whether adding resting heart rate improves dementia risk prediction within the CAIDE model using machine learning.
Does adding resting heart rate to the CAIDE model improve 3-year dementia risk prediction in older adults?
Does adding resting heart rate to the CAIDE model improve 3-year dementia risk prediction in older adults?
Adding resting heart rate to the CAIDE model using machine learning modestly improves the prediction of 3-year dementia risk, offering a non-invasive and accessible tool for early risk identification.

May enhance dementia risk stratification when added to CAIDE; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
