Furthermore, when quintiles of ARFS score were tested against each ARCS sub-scale score, statistically significant associations were observed with the greatest effect for the Memory (β = 4.055; p = 0.001; R² = 0.0065) and Attention (β = 4.136; p = 0.002; R² = 0.0047) domains. No statistically significant associations were observed between quintiles of ARFS and MMSE score in the adjusted linear regression analyses. In conclusion, a positive association was observed between diet quality and cognitive performance within this sample of older Australian adults. Further investigation of the above association over time, when follow-up data becomes available, in longitudinal analysis is recommended.]]> Wed 22 Mar 2023 16:38:11 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11471 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:11:39 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35710 4.5 but <20.0MJ/d). Linear regression models showed statistically significant associations between dietary intake of total n-6 fatty acids and improved cognitive performance measured by the ARCs (RC= 0.0043; P=0.0004; R²= 0.0084). Quartiles of n-6 fatty acid intakes where the lowest quartile of n-6 fatty acid intake (179.8-1150.3mg) and those in the highest quartile (2315.0-7449.4mg) had a total ARCs score 10.6 units greater (RC= 10.60466; P= 0.006; R²= 0.0081). Furthermore, when n-6 fatty acid intake was tested against each of the ARCs domains, statistically significant associations were observed for the Fluency (RC=0.0011432; P= 0.007; R²=0.0057), Visual (RC=0.0009889;P=0.034;R²=0.0050), Language (RC=0.0010651; P=0.047;R²=0.0068) and Attention (RC=0.0011605; P=0.017; R²=0.0099) domains, yet there was no association with Memory (RC= -0.000064; P= 0.889; R²= 0.0083). No statistically significant associations between any other fatty acids and ARCS, nor any fatty acids and MMSE were detected. A higher intake of total n-6 fatty acid, but no other types of fatty acids, was associated with better cognitive performance among a representative sample of older Australian adults.]]> Fri 25 Oct 2019 15:40:12 AEDT ]]>
