Social Relationships May Influence Stroke and Dementia Risk
Two very different risk factors, social isolation and low levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, are associated with increased risk of stroke and dementia. Mass General researchers investigated whether social relationships reduce stroke and dementia risk through the BDNF pathway.
