About The Study: In this cohort study of dementia-free older adults, anemia was associated cross-sectionally with higher levels of Alzheimer disease blood biomarkers and longitudinally with increased dementia risk. The highest dementia risk occurred when low hemoglobin and elevated Alzheimer disease biomarkers coexisted, suggesting a potential interplay between anemia and neuropathology in dementia development.
