Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to identify common cognitive factors related to dementia in older Chinese adults using data from two large surveys, CLHLS and CHARLS, conducted in 2018.
- - Researchers found a consistent three-factor model involving orientation, memory, and executive function/language for both cohorts, with dementia prevalence estimates aligning closely with established benchmarks.
- - Results indicated that while dementia estimates from CHARLS were higher than those from CLHLS, both sets of estimates were consistent with national prevalence data, suggesting reliable methods for assessing dementia in aging populations.
