Title: Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability
Brief Summary: This multi-center (6 sites: Helsinki, Kuopio, Oulu, Seinäjoki, Turku, Vantaa) intervention study aims to prevent cognitive impairment, dementia and disability in 60-77 year old persons at an increased dementia risk. The 2-year multi-domain life-style intervention includes nutritional guidance, exercise, cognitive training, increased social activity, and intensive monitoring and management of metabolic and vascular risk factors. The primary outcome is cognitive impairment measured by a sensitive Neuropsychological Test Battery (NTB), and Stroop and Trail Making tests to capture early cognitive impairment typical for both Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. We hypothesize that the multi-domain intervention will reduce cognitive impairment in the study group compared to the control group during the initial 2-year intervention period and reduce dementia incidence after the extended follow-up (until at least 300 participants have developed dementia).


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* aged 60-77 years
* dementia Risk Score 6 points or more
* fulfillment of at least one of the following CERAD criteria: i) MMSE: 20-26 points ii) word list memory task (3x10 words): 19 words or less iii) delayed recall: 75% or less

Exclusion Criteria:

* malignant diseases
* dementia
* substantial cognitive decline
* major depression
* symptomatic cardiovascular disease
* revascularisation within 1 year
* severe loss of vision, hearing or communicative ability
* other conditions inhibiting from safe engagement in the prescribed intervention as judged by the study physician
* other conditions preventing from cooperation as judged by the study physician
B: Inclusion Criteria:

* Aged 80 or older
* Sitting systolic BP 160-199 mmHg AND sitting diastolic BP \< 110 mmHg

Exclusion Criteria:

* Known accelerated hypertension (retinal haemorrhages or exudates or papilloedema).

* Alcohol or drug abuse.
* Less than 2 months placebo run-in.

* subjects with at least one of the following frailty criteria: a subjective memory complaint, expressed to their attending physician, an inability to perform one of instrumental activities of daily living, a slow walking with a speed ≤ 0.77 m/s, i.e 5 seconds to walk 4 meters.
* subjects with an MMSE score of greater than or equal to 24,
* subjects capable of understanding the protocol, complying with its requirements and attending the study visits,
* subjects with sufficient availability to take part in the multi-domain intervention programme,
* subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, are liable to comply with the treatment during the study;
* subjects capable of giving their written informed consent
* Covered by a health insurance system

Exclusion Criteria:

* Criteria related to diseases:

  * known presence of dementia or Alzheimer's disease (DSM IV criteria),
  * deterioration in global cognitive function (MMSE \< 24),

  * history or presence of any disease that could compromise the subject's participation in the multi-domain intervention sessions,
* Criteria related to treatments:

  o taking of supplements containing omega-3 (apart from food) within the past 6 months and/or taking omega-3 at inclusion.
* Criteria related to subjects:

  * visual or hearing impairments incompatible with performance and/or interpretation of the neuropsychological tests,
  * history or presence of any previous pathologies that could, in the opinion of the investigator, interfere with the results of the study or expose the subject to an additional risk,
  * subjects deprived of their freedom by administrative or judicial decision, or under guardianship or admitted to a healthcare or social institution,
  * participation in another clinical study in the previous month or participation scheduled during the study.
D: Inclusion Criteria:

* Aged 70 years or older.
* Family history of parent, brother, or sister who has, or had, serious age-related memory loss, senility, dementia, or Alzheimer's disease.
* Study partner available to provide information on the cognitive status of the participant and to assist with monitoring of trial medications, if needed.
* Sufficient fluency in written and spoken English to participate in study visits and neuropsychological testing.
* Willingness to limit use of the following for the duration of the study: vitamin E (at doses greater than 400 IU per day), non-aspirin NSAIDs, histamine H2 receptor antagonists (Tagamet, for example), corticosteroids, anti-inflammatory or analgesic doses of aspirin (greater than 81 mg per day), Ginkgo biloba extracts
