Association between depression and the risk of Alzheimer’s disease using the Korean National Health Insurance Service-Elderly Cohort

Abstract In this cohort study, we assessed the association between depression and the risk of Alzheimer’s disease from data obtained from the 2002 to 2013 Korean National Health Insurance Service-Elderly Cohort Database, which accounts for 10% of the South Korean population aged > 60 years.
