Table 3 Hazard ratios (95% CI) for the association between PM2.5 and dementia risk during the 13-year follow-up period. Adjusted for age, sex, modified CCI, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, temperature, relative humidity and pollutants in the corresponding year.

From: Long-term exposure to particulate matter was associated with increased dementia risk using both traditional approaches and novel machine learning methods
