Abstract

Vascular dementia is the most common neuropsychiatric syndrome and is characterized by synaptic dysfunction, neuroinflammation, and cognitive dysfunction. Vascular dementia is associated with various environmental, genetic, and lifestyle risk factors. Recent research has focused on the association between vascular dementia and dietary patterns, suggesting that dietary regulation leads to better control of energy metabolism, improvements in brain insulin resistance, and the suppression of neuroinflammation. Intermittent fasting is a calorie-restriction method known to be more effective in promoting fat loss and regulating the impairment of glucose metabolism as compared with other dietary restriction regimens. Herein, the authors review the effects of intermittent fasting with regard to vascular dementia based on recent evidence and propose that intermittent fasting could be a therapeutic approach for ameliorating vascular dementia pathology and preventing its onset.

  • Dietary approaches in terms of nutrition supplementation or nutritional guidance ameliorate both cognition and function of prodromal and mild AD patients.

    “Finally, dietary approaches in terms of nutrition supplementation, such as combined formulation of specific active ingredients or probiotics, or nutritional guidance, such as fasting intermitting or Mediterranean diet, ameliorate both cognition and function of prodromal and mild AD patients [200,201,202].”

    From Treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease: Beyond Symptomatic Therapies (2023) · cites this paper as [202]

    The Conclusions (page not available) report evidence that intermittent fasting improves cognitive dysfunction and memory deficits in dementia. The paper presents fasting as a potential therapy, but does not establish that it improves both cognition and daily functioning in patients with prodromal or mild Alzheimer’s disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
