J-shaped association between dietary thiamine intake and the risk of cognitive decline in cognitively healthy, older Chinese individuals by Yuanyuan Zhang, Xianhui Qin, Chengzhang Liu, Chun Zhou, Mengyi Liu, Panpan He, Ziliang Ye, Qiguo Meng, Yuanxiu Wei, Xinyue Su

“…Beyond the inflection point, each unit increase in thiamine intake (mg/day) was associated with a significant decrease of 4.24 (95% CI: 2.22 to 6.27) points in the global score and 0.49 (95% CI: 0.23 to 0.76) standard units in the composite score within 5 years. A stronger positive association between thiamine intake and cognitive decline was observed in those with hypertension, obesity and those who were non-smokers (all p&lt;0.05).Conclusions This study revealed a J-shaped association between dietary thiamine intake and cognitive decline in cognitively healthy, older Chinese individuals, with an inflection point at 0.68 mg/day and a minimal risk at 0.60–1.00 mg/day of dietary thiamine intake.…”
