Synthesize existing research on systematic methods aimed at reducing barriers to racial and ethnic minority recruitment and retention in Alzheimer disease studies.
Reviewed 121 reports cross-cutting biomedical fields (including cancer, kidney disease, and Alzheimer disease) targeting diverse participant recruitment and retention.
Identified and analyzed the subset of 8 reports specifically addressing Alzheimer disease clinical research.
Showed that the broader literature on minority recruitment across biomedical fields remains primarily descriptive with sparse quantitative outcome data.
Identified an acute lack of data-driven or hypothesis-tested recruitment and retention interventions specifically evaluated within Alzheimer disease clinical research.
