Resumen
Vivir en vecindarios transitables se asocia con un declive cognitivo más lento en mujeres de mediana edad. Los entornos de alimentos saludables tuvieron efectos variables en los grupos raciales, lo que resalta la importancia de las características del vecindario para la salud cerebral.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Salud Ambiental; Neurociencia; Gerontología
Sus antecedentes:
- Los entornos del vecindario pueden influir en los comportamientos de salud y la función cognitiva.; La investigación previa sobre los impactos del vecindario en la cognición ha producido hallazgos inconsistentes.; Se necesitan estudios de seguimiento a largo plazo para comprender estas asociaciones.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Investigar la asociación entre la transitabilidad del vecindario y los entornos de alimentos saludables y el declive cognitivo longitudinal en mujeres de mediana edad.; Examinar los efectos sobre la velocidad de procesamiento, la memoria de trabajo y la memoria episódica durante un período de seguimiento de 10 años.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de 1391 mujeres del Estudio de Salud de Mujeres a lo Largo de la Vida (SWAN) con 10,2 años de seguimiento.; Evaluación de la transitabilidad del vecindario utilizando el Índice Nacional de Transitabilidad de la EPA.; Evaluación de entornos de alimentos saludables utilizando el Índice Modificado del Entorno de Venta Minorista de Alimentos (mRFEI) de los CDC.
Principales resultados:
- Una mayor transitabilidad del vecindario se asoció con un declive más lento en la memoria episódica inmediata y diferida.; Una interacción significativa mostró una menor recuperación inmediata en áreas de baja transitabilidad para mujeres con alta tensión financiera.; Los entornos de alimentos saludables tuvieron efectos diferenciales entre los grupos raciales/étnicos, mostrando asociaciones protectoras para las mujeres japonesas.
Conclusiones:
- Las mujeres de mediana edad en vecindarios más transitables experimentaron un declive más lento de la memoria episódica.; Los entornos de alimentos saludables demostraron efectos protectores cognitivos variados según la raza/etnia.; Se necesita más investigación para dilucidar los mecanismos e informar intervenciones específicas.

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
