Figure 1 Odds ratios and prevalence ratios reported in nine studies of dementia prevalence
Figure 1 | Odds ratios and prevalence ratios reported in nine studies of dementia prevalence. Reported figures are the ratios of the prevalence estimate for new cohorts to those for old cohorts. If prevalence estimates remain the same across two cohorts, the ratio is 1.0. If estimates are higher in the new cohort than the old cohort, the ratio is greater than 1.0. Estimates are adjusted as follows: Gothenburg study and HRS, unadjusted; IIDP, adjusted for age; Nordanstig, Zaragoza, Bordeaux and Hisayama studies, adjusted for age and sex; Stockholm study, adjusted for age, sex and education; CFAS, adjusted for age, sex, area and deprivation. In the Bordeaux study, clinical diagnosis was made by neuropsychologists using criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual III revised, and algorithmic diagnosis was based on cognitive and functional ability tests. CFAS, Cognitive Function and Ageing Study; HRS, Health and Retirement Study; IIDP, Indianapolis–Ibadan Dementia Project.
