Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of Southern California, San Diego, USA.
Background: Recruitment of demographically diverse participants into Alzheimer's disease (AD) clinical trials, encompassing both screening and randomization, remains a consistent and persistent challenge contributing to underrepresentation of certain groups. Despite the exciting prospects of identifying therapeutic interventions for biomarker-eligible, cognitively unimpaired individuals, these studies grapple with the inherent complexities of AD trials coupled with intricate and time-consuming screening processes. Addressing this the issue of underrepresentation necessitates concerted and intentional efforts that prioritize inclusivity and equitable access to enroll adults meeting study criteria, reflecting the demographic and social diversity of North America.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: Loneliness and depression among older adults are linked to a higher likelihood of chronic diseases, deterioration of physical function, and compromised quality of life. LGBTQ older adults are known to experience social isolation and mental distress at higher rates than their heterosexual counterparts, and those with cognitive impairment may be particularly susceptible to loneliness and depression. However, there is limited knowledge regarding the risk and protective factors for loneliness and depression among LGBTQ older adults living with cognitive impairment.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
University of Nevada Las Vegas School of Public Health, Las Vegas, NV, USA.
Background: Our previous work has found that sexual and gender minority (SGM) or LGBTQIA+ caregivers of people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) experience higher levels of stigma, depressive symptoms, and stress than non-SGM caregivers and that these outcomes are associated with experiences of microaggressions related to their SGM identities. Guided by the Health Equity Promotion Model, we sought to explore the impact of the environmental context on psychosocial outcomes among SGM caregivers of people living with ADRD.
Methods: Data from a cross-sectional online survey using a non-probabilistic sample of SGM caregivers of people with ADRD recruited via social media (n = 284) were combined with publicly available data reporting composite equity climate index scores across five domains: legal/non-discrimination protections, youth/family support, political/religious attitudes, health access/safety, and work environment/employment.
