INTRODUCTION: This study aims to examine whether physical activity moderates the
association between biomarkers of brain pathologies and dementia risk.
METHODS: From the Memento cohort, we analyzed 1044 patients with mild cognitive
impairment, aged 60 and older. Self-reported physical activity was assessed
using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Biomarkers of brain
pathologies comprised medial temporal lobe atrophy (MTA), white matter lesions,
and plasma amyloid beta (Aβ)42/40 and phosphorylated tau181. Association between
physical activity and risk of developing dementia over 5 years of follow-up, and
interactions with biomarkers of brain pathologies were tested.
RESULTS: Physical activity moderated the association between MTA and plasma
Aβ42/40 level and increased dementia risk. Compared to participants with low
physical activity, associations of both MTA and plasma Aβ42/40 on dementia risk
were attenuated in participants with high physical activity.
DISCUSSION: Although reverse causality cannot be excluded, this work suggests
that physical activity may contribute to cognitive reserve.
HIGHLIGHTS: Physical activity is an interesting modifiable target for dementia
prevention. Physical activity may moderate the impact of brain pathology on
dementia risk. Medial temporal lobe atrophy and plasma amyloid beta 42/40 ratio
were associated with increased dementia risk especially in those with low level
of physical activity.
