[Prevalence and incidence of dementia in Denmark. The Odense study].

Prevalence and incidence of dementia were determined for 65-84 year-old persons living in the municipality of Odense and randomly drawn from the Danish Civil Registration System (DCRS). All participants were examined with CAMCOG, the cognitive section of CAMDEX (The Cambridge Examination for Mental Disorders of the Elderly) and the follow-up period was two years. Individualized CAMCOG cut-off scores were determined by multiple linear regression.
