Abstract Synopsis

  • The Brain Care Score (BCS) is a 21-point tool developed to promote healthier behaviors to reduce the risk of dementia and stroke, based on data from UK Biobank participants aged 40-69.
  • Higher BCS scores are linked to a lower risk of developing dementia and stroke; for example, a five-point increase in BCS corresponds to about a 48% reduction in stroke risk among certain age groups.
  • The study suggests the BCS is a significant predictor for dementia and stroke risk in approximately 4 million UK residents, and future research will explore how to adapt and implement the BCS globally for patients and healthcare providers.]
