Alcohol consumption in midlife and cognitive performance assessed 13 years later in the SU.VI.MAX 2 cohort.

<h4>Background</h4>Associations between alcohol consumption and cognitive function are discordant and data focusing on midlife exposure are scarce.<h4>Objective</h4>To estimate the association between midlife alcohol consumption and cognitive performance assessed 13 y later w...
