among older adults, we found that obesity was associated with a decreased risk of dementia, consistent with the hypothesis that, while obesity in mid-life may increase risk for later - life cognitive decline and dementia, obesity at older ages may be associated with cognitive and

cardiovascular treatments leading to a decline in dementia risk.
