Objectives
Depression may be a risk factor or a prodromal symptom of dementia, and decreased serum levels of brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) have been observed in both depression and dementia. The aim of the present study was to determine whether serum levels of BDNF in the remitted or acute phase of depression predicted the transition from depression to dementia.

Serum levels...
