Survival After the Diagnosis of Mild‐to‐Moderate Alzheimer's Disease Dementia: A 15‐Year National Cohort Study in Taiwan
This nationwide, large, long-term cohort study provided survival rates and durations from diagnosis to death, varying by sex, age group, and presence/number of comorbidities. This information can serve as a foundation for further cost-effectiveness studies on new treatments, and may aid clinicians, patients, and families in shared decision-making and advance personalized care planning for early dementia cases.
