| 요약 | Cognitive impairment is a significant public health concern as the United States (US) population continues to age at unprecedented rates. It is well established that older adults are more likely to have higher rates of morbidity and mortality, in addition to greater healthcare utilization and costs. A parallel concern is the greater risk of cognitive deficits among this population. Impairments in cognitive function are known to exacerbate poorer health outcomes among older adults. Within the field of cognitive aging, there has also been increasing focus on impairments that are greater than would be expected for normal aging, yet not reaching thresholds for cognitive disorders such as dementia. Known broadly as cognitive impairment (CI) not meeting criteria for dementia, CI has been shown to be an 'at-risk' state for worsening cognition or dementia. However, gaps in knowledge about CI remain, especially regarding its potentially subtle yet clinically significant impact on chronic disease self-management. Furthermore, relatively few research studies have examined the extent and associations between CI and health outcomes, or subsequently explored causal mechanisms that could inform the development of health system responses to improve the identification and management of CI. These studies are especially needed among older adults diverse by socioeconomic status and race/ethnicity. The objectives of this secondary investigation were threefold. Using data from the National Institute of Aging (NIA) Literacy and Cognitive Function among Older Adults (i.e. 'LitCog') cohort study (R01AG030611 |
