  1. Data analysis was conducted by logistic regression model. Hazard rations (HR): Risk of MMSE ≤24 or ≤26 with an increase of 1 µg/d acrylamide intake. Adjusted variables included age (y), education, PASE total scores, dietary carbohydrate intake (% total energy), total AHA scores, baseline body weight, coffee (ml/d), tea drinking (ml/d), alcohol drinking (ml/d), medical history of diabetes (yes/no), stroke (yes/no), hypertension (yes/no), heart infarction (yes/no), any cancers (yes/no), total isoflavoens intake (mg/d), fruit and vegetables intakes (g/1000 kcal), fish consumption (g/1000 kcal). Total AHA scores were estimated based on the adherence index of American Heart Association on dietary and life style recommendations. MMSE: questionnaire for Mini-Mental State Exam.
