Statin Use and the Risk of Incident Dementia
Arch Neurol 62:1047-1051, Rea,T.D.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In this cohort study, statin therapy was not associated with a decreased risk of dementia. Methodological differences may explain why results of this cohort investigation differ from those of prior case-control studies. Additional investigation is needed to determine whether and for whom statin use may affect dementia risk.
