Does aspirin affect outcome in vascular dementia?
The results support but do not prove a role for regular, low-dose aspirin in improving both life expectancy and survival at home for patients with vascular dementia. Compliance may be better in those living with a carer. Larger, prospective studies should be performed to confirm these findings. Cognitive and behavioural outcomes should also be studied.
This paper is the first to examine multiple sources of support for smoking cessation in Latino smokers; partner support and the presence of a significant other are associated with quitting smoking.
