Cardiovascular disease attenuates the protective effect of folate on global cognitive function in an elderly population: a cross-sectional study by Jianqiang Zhang, Di Yue, Huifeng Zhang

“…In addition, when different sources of folate were included separately in the models, fully adjusted logistic regression with continuous variables included in the model revealed that only RBC folate was significantly associated with CoI [odds ratio (OR) 0.86, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.75–0.97, P = 0.02]. According to tertile groups, compared with participants in the lowest tertile, individuals in the highest tertile of total dietary folate levels (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.48–0.94, P = 0.02), folic acid levels (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.38–0.86, P = 0.01), and RBC folate levels (OR 0.62, 95% CI 0.44–0.85, P = 0.004) had significantly lower odds of having CoI. …”
