- ItemDoes parity matter in women’s risk of dementia? A COSMIC collaboration cohort study(BMC, 2020-08-05) Bae JB; Lipnicki DM; Han JW; Sachdev PS; Kim TH; Kwak KP; Kim BJ; Kim SG; Kim JL; Moon SW; Park JH; Ryu S-H; Youn JC; Lee DY; Lee DW; Lee SB; Lee JJ; Jhoo JH; Llibre-Rodriguez JJ; Llibre-Guerra JJ; Valhuerdi-Cepero AJ; Ritchie K; Ancelin M-L; Carriere I; Skoog I; Najar J; Sterner TR; Scarmeas N; Yannakoulia M; Dardiotis E; Meguro K; Kasai M; Nakamura K; Riedel-Heller S; Roehr S; Pabst A; van Boxtel M; Köhler S; Ding D; Zhao Q; Liang X; Scazufca M; Lobo A; De-la-Cámara C; Lobo E; Kim KW; for Cohort Studies of Memory in an International Consortium (COSMIC)Background Dementia shows sex difference in its epidemiology. Childbirth, a distinctive experience of women, is associated with the risk for various diseases. However, its association with the risk of dementia in women has rarely been studied. Methods We harmonized and pooled baseline data from 11 population-based cohorts from 11 countries over 3 continents, including 14,792 women aged 60 years or older. We investigated the association between parity and the risk of dementia using logistic regression models that adjusted for age, educational level, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cohort, with additional analyses by region and dementia subtype. Results Across all cohorts, grand multiparous (5 or more childbirths) women had a 47% greater risk of dementia than primiparous (1 childbirth) women (odds ratio [OR] = 1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.10–1.94), while nulliparous (no childbirth) women and women with 2 to 4 childbirths showed a comparable dementia risk to primiparous women. However, there were differences associated with region and dementia subtype. Compared to women with 1 to 4 childbirths, grand multiparous women showed a higher risk of dementia in Europe (OR = 2.99, 95% CI = 1.38–6.47) and Latin America (OR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.04–2.12), while nulliparous women showed a higher dementia risk in Asia (OR = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.33–3.47). Grand multiparity was associated with 6.9-fold higher risk of vascular dementia in Europe (OR = 6.86, 95% CI = 1.81–26.08), whereas nulliparity was associated with a higher risk of Alzheimer disease (OR = 1.91, 95% CI 1.07–3.39) and non-Alzheimer non-vascular dementia (OR = 3.47, 95% CI = 1.44–8.35) in Asia. Conclusion Parity is associated with women’s risk of dementia, though this is not uniform across regions and dementia subtypes.
- ItemParity and the risk of incident dementia: a COSMIC study(Cambridge University Press, 2020-10-20) Bae JB; Lipnicki DM; Han JW; Sachdev PS; Kim TH; Kwak KP; Kim BJ; Kim SG; Kim JL; Moon SW; Park JH; Ryu S-H; Youn JC; Lee DY; Lee DW; Lee SB; Lee JJ; Jhoo JH; Skoog I; Najar J; Sterner TR; Scarmeas N; Yannakoulia M; Dardiotis E; Riedel-Heller S; Roehr S; Pabst A; Ding D; Zhao Q; Liang X; Lobo A; De-la-Cámara C; Lobo E; Kim KW; for Cohort Studies of Memory in an International Consortium (COSMIC)Aims To investigate the association between parity and the risk of incident dementia in women. Methods We pooled baseline and follow-up data for community-dwelling women aged 60 or older from six population-based, prospective cohort studies from four European and two Asian countries. We investigated the association between parity and incident dementia using Cox proportional hazards regression models adjusted for age, educational level, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and cohort, with additional analysis by dementia subtype (Alzheimer dementia (AD) and non-Alzheimer dementia (NAD)). Results Of 9756 women dementia-free at baseline, 7010 completed one or more follow-up assessments. The mean follow-up duration was 5.4 ± 3.1 years and dementia developed in 550 participants. The number of parities was associated with the risk of incident dementia (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.02–1.13). Grand multiparity (five or more parities) increased the risk of dementia by 30% compared to 1–4 parities (HR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.02–1.67). The risk of NAD increased by 12% for every parity (HR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.02–1.23) and by 60% for grand multiparity (HR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.00–2.55), but the risk of AD was not significantly associated with parity. Conclusions Grand multiparity is a significant risk factor for dementia in women. This may have particularly important implications for women in low and middle-income countries where the fertility rate and prevalence of grand multiparity are high.
- ItemSex differences in dementia risk and risk factors: Individual-participant data analysis using 21 cohorts across six continents from the COSMIC consortium.(John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 2023-08-01) Gong J; Harris K; Lipnicki DM; Castro-Costa E; Lima-Costa MF; Diniz BS; Xiao S; Lipton RB; Katz MJ; Wang C; Preux P-M; Guerchet M; Gbessemehlan A; Ritchie K; Ancelin M-L; Skoog I; Najar J; Sterner TR; Scarmeas N; Yannakoulia M; Kosmidis MH; Guaita A; Rolandi E; Davin A; Gureje O; Trompet S; Gussekloo J; Riedel-Heller S; Pabst A; Röhr S; Shahar S; Singh DKA; Rivan NFM; Boxtel MV; Köhler S; Ganguli M; Chang C-C; Jacobsen E; Haan M; Ding D; Zhao Q; Narazaki K; Chen T; Chen S; Ng TP; Gwee X; Numbers K; Mather KA; Scazufca M; Lobo A; De-la-Cámara C; Lobo E; Sachdev PS; Brodaty H; Hackett ML; Peters SAE; Woodward MINTRODUCTION: Sex differences in dementia risk, and risk factor (RF) associations with dementia, remain uncertain across diverse ethno-regional groups. METHODS: A total of 29,850 participants (58% women) from 21 cohorts across six continents were included in an individual participant data meta-analysis. Sex-specific hazard ratios (HRs), and women-to-men ratio of hazard ratios (RHRs) for associations between RFs and all-cause dementia were derived from mixed-effect Cox models. RESULTS: Incident dementia occurred in 2089 (66% women) participants over 4.6 years (median). Women had higher dementia risk (HR, 1.12 [1.02, 1.23]) than men, particularly in low- and lower-middle-income economies. Associations between longer education and former alcohol use with dementia risk (RHR, 1.01 [1.00, 1.03] per year, and 0.55 [0.38, 0.79], respectively) were stronger for men than women; otherwise, there were no discernible sex differences in other RFs. DISCUSSION: Dementia risk was higher in women than men, with possible variations by country-level income settings, but most RFs appear to work similarly in women and men.
- ItemWarrants and their underlying stocks: Microstructure evidence from an emerging market(Virtus Interpress, 27/09/2018) Charoenwong C; Ding D; Visaltanachoti NThe Stock Exchange of Thailand provides an ideal platform for comparing the trading characteristics of warrants and their underlying stocks since both of them trade in the same market under identical trading rules. If their patterns diverge significantly, it may be possible for an astute trader to devise profitable arbitrage strategies during the life of the warrants. We find that both their patterns are downward-sloping for spreads, U-shaped for flow toxicity, volatility, depth concentration, and trading volume; and upward-sloping for depth and market order flow ratio. This implies that trading under identical market structures leads to similar trading characteristics. We document that flow toxicity is negatively related to spread and positively related to depth, market order flow ratio, trade size, trading volume, and volatility.
