But although old age remains by far the biggest risk factor, women are more at risk than men and some genetic inheritances make dementia more likely or even almost inevitable, the 3._____(late) research suggests that as many as 45% of 4._____(case) of dementia are preventable—or at least that their onset can be 5._____(delay).
