A two decade dementia incidence comparison from the Cognitive Function and Ageing Studies i and II. Nature communications, 7, https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms11398

Dramatic global increases in future numbers of people with dementia have been predicted. No multicentre population-based study powered to detect changes over time has reported dementia incidence. MRC Cognitive Function and Ageing Study (CFAS) underto... Read More about A two decade dementia incidence comparison from the Cognitive Function and Ageing Studies i and II.

Background: dementia risk conferred by apolipoprotein-E (APOE) and angiotensin-1-converting enzyme (ACE) polymorphisms have been reported for the MRC Cognitive Function and Ageing Study (CFAS) at 6-year follow-up. We concentrate on incident dementia... Read More about APOE and ACE polymorphisms and dementia risk in the older population over prolonged follow-up: 10 years of incidence in the MRC CFA study.

Background: Although incidence of dementia is known to vary between nations, variation within country has not been explored because most incidence studies are single site or have insufficient numbers to compare sites. Few countries have conducted mul... Read More about The incidence of dementia in England and Wales: Findings from the five identical sites of the MRC CFA study.
