Secular trends in incidence, survival, and health status at diagnosis of dementia in Sweden, 2007–2022
While the incidence of dementia diagnosis has declined from early 2010s and onwards, patients diagnosed today are on average frailer and more comorbid than those diagnosed 15 years ago, which partly explains the lack of improvement in dementia survival over time. Enhancing healthcare planning for people with dementia diagnosis and improving their survival is still highly relevant.
