<p>A recently released <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/health" target="_blank" rel="noopener">medical study</a> from researchers from Maastricht University and the University of Exeter discovered more than a dozen factors that experts say are strongly linked to young-onset dementia (YOD).</p>
<p>The <a href="https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaneurology/article-abstract/2813439" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study</a> was published in <em>JAMA Neurology</em> late last month after researchers analyzed more than 356,052 participants in the U.K. Biobank as an estimated 4 million people worldwide between ages 30 and 64 are living with YOD.</p>
<p>The 15 factors researchers discovered that were &#8220;significantly associated&#8221; with a higher risk of developing YOD included:</p>
<ul>
<li>Lower formal education</li>
<li>Lower socioeconomic status</li>
<li>Carrying 2 apolipoprotein ε4 allele, which is considered to be the strongest genetic risk factor for late onset Alzheimer’s disease.</li>
<li>No alcohol use</li>
<li>Alcohol use disorder</li>
<li>Social isolation</li>
<li>Vitamin D deficiency</li>
<li>High C-reactive protein levels</li>
<li>Lower handgrip strength</li>
<li>Hearing impairment</li>
<li>Orthostatic hypotension</li>
<li>Stroke</li>
<li>Diabetes</li>
<li>Heart disease</li>
<li>Depression.</li>
</ul>
<p>Lead study author Stevie Hendriks,<strong> </strong>a postdoctoral researcher in psychiatry and neuropsychology at Maastricht University in the Netherlands, <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/12/26/health/early-dementia-risk-study-wellness/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> CNN that the findings “changes our understanding of young-onset dementia, challenging the notion that genetics are the sole cause of the condition and highlighting that a range of risk factors may be important.”</p>
<p>“In addition to physical factors, mental health also plays an important role, including avoiding chronic stress, loneliness and depression,” he added. “The fact that this is also evident in young-onset dementia came as a surprise to us, and it may offer opportunities to reduce risk in this group too.”</p>

<p>Dr. Richard Isaacson, director of research at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases in Florida, told CNN that he believes people have the ability to &#8220;fight against early onset cognitive decline.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;My clinical experience much more closely aligns with results of this new study — that it truly may be possible to grab the bull by the horns, and be proactive about certain lifestyle and other health factors, to reduce risk,&#8221; he said.</p>
