The study found that participants with a medicine score of four or 
more were at an increased risk of death compared to patients taking 
no anticholinergic drugs. Those taking medicines with a combined 
score of five or more had lower scores on a cognitive function test 
which supports previous research showing a possible link between 
anticholinergic medicines and problems with thought processes.
