DESCRIPTION:Speaker:  Deborah Oliveira PhD RN\, Research Fellow\, Universit
 y of Nottingham\, Institute of Mental Health\nTitle:  Willingness to adher
 e to the recommended alcohol consumption guidelines for potential dementia
  risk reduction: Results from a national cross-sectional survey of people 
 aged 50 and over *\nAbstract:\nThere is strong evidence that about a third
  of all dementia cases can be attributed to modifiable risk factors\, such
  as diabetes\, high blood pressure and obesity\, and that reducing these r
 isk factors in middle age could potentially reduce dementia risk in later 
 life.\nThe consumption of alcohol to excess has been considered to be an i
 ndependent predictor of dementia as it causes irreversible detrimental eff
 ects to the brain structure. It is therefore important to understand wheth
 er people are willing to adhere to the current alcohol consumption guideli
 nes in order to reduce their risk of having dementia in the future.\nIn th
 is seminar\, Dr Oliveira will present the results of a national online sur
 vey in which a non-probabilistic sample of 3\,948 individuals aged 50 and 
 over were asked about their current levels of alcohol intake and willingne
 ss to comply with the UK recommended alcohol limits to potentially reduce 
 their dementia risk. Multivariate logistic regressions were used to identi
 fy those who are at the highest risk for non-adherence to alcohol guidelin
 es. Implications of the study results to research and clinical practice wi
 ll be discussed in relation to dementia risk reduction.\n * This study was
  funded by the Alzheimer’s Research UK Midland.\nTo register your attendan
