Mild cognitive impairment, dementia and osteoporosis are common diseases of ageing and, with the increasingly global population, increasing in prevalence. These conditions closely associated, shared risk factors, underlying biological mechanisms potential direct causal pathways. In this review, epidemiological mechanistic links between mild skeletal health explored. Discussion will focus on how changes brain bone signalling can underly associations these conditions, consider molecular cellular drivers context inflammation gut microbiome. There is a complex interplay nutritional changes, which may precede or follow onset impairment (MCI) dementia, health. Polypharmacy patients MCI there difficult prescribing decisions to be made due elevated falls associated many drugs used for problems, consequently increase fracture risk. Some medications prescribed directly impact addition, have difficulty remembering medication without assistance, meaning that but not taken. Cognitive improved delayed by physical activity exercise, evidence additional benefits fractures. Research gaps priorities aim reducing burden fractures people also discussed.
