The study centered on a group of some 2,300 individuals who have been studied since 1958 as part oftheBaltimore Longitudinal 4 Study of Aging, conducted at Hopkins and sponsored by the National Institute on Aging. Since 1978, the research team has asked participants about their use ofnon- steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, commonly calledNSAIDs. Stewart, Kawas and their col- leagues found that the average risk of developing Alzheimer’s among all the 1,686 participants who took NSAIDs regularly was about half the risk among those who did not.
