Dementia prevalence and dementia risk in Indigenous Peoples: recent findings, current developments, and future directions.
Curr Opin Psychiatry
December 2024
Atlantic Fellow for Equity in Brain Health, Global Brain Health Institute (GBHI), Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland and UCSF, USA.
Purpose Of Review: To highlight recent findings on the prevalence and risk and protective factors for dementia in Indigenous Peoples, who are disproportionately affected by health inequities driven by social determinants of health and historical injustices. With increasing numbers of Indigenous individuals entering older age, there is a growing need for research to better understand dementia and opportunities for prevention in Indigenous Peoples.
Recent Findings: Recent studies highlight a wide range of dementia prevalence across Indigenous Peoples, with estimates varying significantly by methodology, socio-cultural context, and region with stark gaps in regional representation.
An umbrella review of health outcomes following traumatic brain injury.
Nat Ment Health
January 2025
Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, Warneford Hospital, Oxford, UK.
While numerous reviews have assessed the association between traumatic brain injury (TBI) and various mental and physical health outcomes, a comprehensive evaluation of the scope, validity, and quality of evidence is lacking. Here we present an umbrella review of a wide range of health outcomes following TBI and outline outcome risks across subpopulations. On 17 May 2023, we searched Embase, Medline, Global Health, PsycINFO, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews for systematic reviews and meta-analyses.

Prev Med Rep
January 2025
Department of Community Building for Well-being, Center for Preventive Medical Sciences, Chiba University, Chiba-shi, Chiba, Japan.
Objectives: Many studies have examined the impact of employment on health, but few large-scale longitudinal studies specifically investigate the impact of agricultural labor on the health of older adults. This study aims to identify the health effects of employment on older Japanese adults, focusing on agricultural workers.
Methods: This study uses longitudinal data collected by the Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study (JAGES) from 2013 to 2019.
Locus coeruleus signal intensity and emotion regulation in agitation in Alzheimer's disease.
Brain Commun
December 2024
Division of Psychiatry, University College London, London W1T 7NF, UK.
Hyperphosphorylated tau accumulation is seen in the noradrenergic locus coeruleus from the earliest stages of Alzheimer's disease onwards and has been associated with symptoms of agitation. It is hypothesized that compensatory locus coeruleus-noradrenaline system overactivity and impaired emotion regulation could underlie agitation propensity, but to our knowledge this has not previously been investigated. A better understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of agitation would help the development of targeted prevention and treatment strategies.

J Alzheimers Dis
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, Juntendo University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Sensory impairments have been linked to dementia. However, the impact of dual sensory impairment (DSI), combining both vision impairment and hearing impairment, on dementia has shown inconsistent results.
Objective: To systematically review the evidence on the association DSI and dementia.
