Modifiable dementia risk factors in Chilean adults are distinctively associated with social determinants of health. Cross-sectional study
In Chile, subpopulations with more disadvantages SDH have a high prevalence of cardiometabolic risk factors. Subpopulations with depression and those with high cardiometabolic risk have a higher accumulation of dementia risk factors. These results highlight that tailored programs improving healthcare accessibility for those with more disadvantages SDH and multidisciplinary interventions for high-risk populations are needed for effective dementia prevention.
