Twenty-seven-year time trends in dementia incidence in Europe and the United States

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

The incidence rate of dementia in Europe and North America has declined by 13% per decade over the past 25 years, consistently across studies. Incidence is similar for men and women, although declines were somewhat more profound in men. These observations call for sustained efforts to finding the causes for this decline, as well as determining their validity in geographically and ethnically diverse populations.
