Fung AWT, et al. - Researchers performed this prospective study to explore how baseline anxiety symptoms are associated with the change of memory in older people without cognitive impairment over a 3-year period. Over a 3-year interval, anxious healthy older adults indicated a specific decline in episodic memory. The outcomes proposed that in cognitively healthy older adults, anxiety symptoms were predictive of episodic memory decline and could be an early sign of neurodegenerative disorders.
