The Women's Health Initiative Memory Study examined the impact of randomization to hormone therapy (conjugated equine estrogen alone or in combination with medroxyprogesterone vs. placebo) in a subset of participants aged 65-79 years at enrollment into WHI and the WHI Hormone Trials. WHIMS revealed an increased risk of all-cause dementia and MCI plus poorer global cognitive function among women randomized to HT compared to those receiving placebo. WHIMS ECHO is a prospective, observational study of the remaining cohort of WHIMS participants following cessation of treatment. Annual cognitive assessments of learning, attention, memory, working memory, executive function and language are conducted by telephone by trained staff and adjudication of incident cognitive impairment (MCI and dementia) continues. This enables the continued monitoring of long-term effects of randomization to HT on cognition and identification of predictors of cognitive aging and resilience in older women."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '65 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Participants will include women who participated in the WHIMS study.', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Participated in the WHIMS study\n\nExclusion Criteria\n\n* Non-English speaking\n* Hearing Impaired'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00745056', 'acronym': 'WHIMS-ECHO', 'briefTitle': 'Examining the Relationship Between Hormone Therapy (HT) and Cognitive Function (The WHIMS-ECHO Study)', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Wake Forest University Health Sciences'}, 'officialTitle': "Women's Health Initiative Memory Study--Epidemiology of Cognitive Health Outcomes", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'BG04-310'}}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '27157', 'city': 'Winston-Salem', 'state': 'North Carolina', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Wake Forest University Health Sciences', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 36.09986, 'lon': -80.24422}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Stephen R.
