Are some people more likely to get vascular dementia?

Certain factors can increase a person’s risk of developing dementia. These include:

A medical history of stroke, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes (particularly type II), heart problems, or sleep apnea (where breathing stops during sleep)
A lack of physical activity, drinking more than recommended levels of alcohol, smoking, eating a fatty diet, or leaving conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes untreated
A family history of stroke or vascular dementia
Gender – men are slightly more likely to develop vascular dementia
An Indian, Bangladeshi, Pakistani, Sri Lankan or African Caribbean ethnic background.

I am just posting the above to bring awareness , because my mother has Diabetes 2 since she was in her 50s .

She never control her food intake or medication , so when she was in her 71 is was told she had AZ

your references left out the genetic links to vascular dementia, specifically cadasil disease.
