Cannabis and cognitive decline
People who smoke cannabis for many years are at greater risk of developing cognitive deficits in midlife, according to a study in New Zealand. Among 1,000 people born in the 1970s and followed until the age of 45, long-term users of cannabis experienced a mean decline of 5.5 IQ points from childhood, a deterioration not accounted for by the use of tobacco, alcohol, other illicit drugs, or by childhood socio-economic status.
