Background: Data from high-income countries (HICs) suggest a decline in age-specific incidence rates of dementia. However, this has happened primarily in HICs, with low- and middle- income countries (LMICs) facing two main challenges: a higher burden of risk factors and, in general, a faster ageing population. Most people with dementia live in LMICs, and this is set to increase, thus requiring urgent and robust action to prevent, treat and support people with dementia and their families.

Background: The emergence of dementia as a global health challenge necessitates an exploration of its unique epidemiological patterns and risk factors in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Amid a growing elderly population, SSA presents an intriguing paradox of lower-than-expected dementia prevalence, prompting a comprehensive review of epidemiological nuances, lifestyle risk factors, cultural influences, and protective factors. This study critically assessed the current state of dementia research in SSA, aiming to inform tailored interventions and policies.

Background: Latinx individuals bear a disproportionate burden of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), with higher risk, underdiagnosis, and limited access to quality care. Primary care providers (PCPs) are crucial for early detection and management, yet organizational and policy factors significantly impact their ability to provide culturally competent and equitable ADRD care for this community. This study explores PCP perspectives to inform the development of accessible models that improve early diagnosis, preventive care, and quality of life for Latinx individuals with ADRD.
