Characteristics and staging of patients with Alzheimer's disease: real‐world data from the United Kingdom

These data indicate a lack of recorded staging events for patients with AD: fewer than 1 in 10 patients diagnosed with AD received a classified disease stage recorded within 3 months of diagnosis. Most received no staging events throughout the entire 8-year study period. This highlights both the low AD staging rate in current UK practice and limitations of available real-world data on staging and disease progression. Further efforts are needed to ensure timely staging, enabling patients to access appropriate treatment and support.
