Participants in this long term study may have experienced subtle changes in memory and cognitive resources associated with early pathological indices. Results will inform theories of normal aging as well as models of the adverse effects of vascular changes in initial development of cognitive impairment. Results may suggest that reducing vascular risk may be key to reducing cognitive decline in older adults.
