Background Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is important for the adult brain, but little is known of the role of IGF-I in Alzheimeŕs disease (AD) or vascular dementia (VaD). Methods A prospective study of 342 patients with subjective or objective mild cognitive impairment recruited at a single memory clinic. We determined whether serum IGF-I concentrations at baseline were associated with the risk of all-cause dementia, AD, or VaD. Patients developing mixed forms of AD and VaD were defined as suffering from VaD. The statistical analyses included Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. Results During the follow-up (mean 3.6 years), 95 (28%) of the patients developed all-cause dementia [AD, n = 37 (11%) and VaD, n = 42 (12%)]. Low as well as high serum IGF-I (quartile 1 or 4 vs. quartiles 2–3) did not associate with all-cause dementia [crude hazard ratio (HR) 1.30, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.81–2.08 and crude HR 1.05, 95% CI: 0.63–1.75, respectively] or AD (crude HR 0.79, 95% CI: 0.35–1.79 and crude HR 0.94, 95% CI: 0.43–2.06, respectively]. In contrast, low serum IGF-I concentrations were associated with increased risk of VaD (quartile 1 vs. quartiles 2–3, crude HR 2.22, 95% CI: 1.13–4.36). The latter association remained significant also after adjustment for multiple covariates. Conclusions In a memory clinic population, low serum IGF-I was a risk marker for subsequent VaD whereas low IGF-I did not associate with the risk of AD. High serum IGF-I was not related to the risk of conversion to dementia. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd
