Popis: dementia when compared to the individuals with no formal education (N1⁄490). After adjustment for sociodemographics and neuropathologic features including neuritic plaques, neurofibrillary tangles, lacunar infarctions, small vessel disease, and Lewy bodies, 1-4 years of education education had an OR1⁄40.54, 95%CI 0.28-1.02; p1⁄40.06;>4 years had an OR1⁄40.38, 95%CI 0.17-0.88; p1⁄40.02. Higher brain weight was also associated to lower frequency of dementia in adjusted analysis (OR1⁄4 0.64, 95% CI: 0.49-0.85, p1⁄40.002). The interaction between education and brain weight was not related do dementia (p1⁄40.37). Conclusions: Higher education and brain weight are associated with lower frequency of dementia. Education and brain weight may represent different domains of neural reserve.
