🔬🧠 Did you know that a recent study conducted by the U.K. Biobank has found a fascinating link between hospital-treated infections and all-cause dementia? 🏥💡 According to the study published in Alzheimer's & Dementia, there seems to be a significant relationship between infections requiring hospital treatment and the development of dementia. However, the plot thickens! 🤔📚 The analysis also revealed that cardiovascular health can modify this relationship. Taking care of your heart health may potentially reduce the risk of developing dementia associated with infections. 💙🤝 If you're interested in diving into the details of this groundbreaking study, check out the link below to the full article: 🔗 Read more: https://hubs.la/Q01-wCbX0 Stay informed, stay curious! 🌐🧠 Share this fascinating research with your friends and family to spread awareness about the connection between infections, cardiovascular health, and dementia.

Join us on March 20 for a free virtual program to learn about the latest advances in dementia science. We will discuss lifestyle changes, current treatments, and the impact of the disease on women, including what current research says about why women are at a higher risk. https://bit.ly/3PbjJwe

Progress on Alzheimer's Disease stagnating, warns federation chief Progress on Alzheimer's Disease and dementia is stagnating, Alzheimer Disease International CEO Paola Barbarino has warned. Despite these rising figures, Barbarino, who leads Alzheimer's Disease International a worldwide federation of Alzheimer associations, finds herself needing to constantly remind governments to pay more attention to this condition. Alzheimer Europe, an NGO that aims to make dementia a European priority, has noticed what it described as "a deprioritisation of dementia as a policy issue in recent years". https://lnkd.in/e88RmhJK #PublicHealth #Europe #StayInformed #StayEmpowered

Across the world, over 55 million people are affected by dementia – a diagnosis that is terminal. Dementia is caused by a number of different diseases, with the most common being Alzheimer’s disease.   We know Alzheimer’s can start to cause changes in the brain up to 20 years before symptoms appear. Sadly, this means many people are diagnosed too late to benefit from new emerging treatments that could significantly slow the condition.   World Alzheimer’s Day is a time to celebrate how far research has taken us in detecting, diagnosing and treating this disease. The same momentum now needs to be matched by policymakers across the world.   Policies to ensure access to the latest diagnostics and treatments will mean that people in the earliest stages of dementia can be supported, before the disease has progressed.   Learn more in our blog: https://lnkd.in/ev-8wkxh   #WorldAlzheimersDay #WAD2023

Today is World Alzheimer's Day, a global opportunity to raise awareness around, educate, encourage support of and demystify dementia. Visit the Alzheimer's Society for information and resources: https://lnkd.in/e5Zc63C #WorldAlzheimersDay #DementiaAwareness #WorldAlzheimersDay2023 Our experts are continually researching health issues to improve the treatment and quality of life. In March, we co-launched the first database of its kind to help researchers look into the causes of neuro-degenerative diseases and their treatment. https://lnkd.in/eQcez7f6 Last week we announced a partnership with Monash University in Australia, the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR) Leicester Bio Medical Research Centre (BRC), and Glasgow University to undertake a multi-million dollar trial to evaluate an exercise rehabilitation model to help people with multiple chronic health conditions, including dementia. https://lnkd.in/ekRhYTDU

Alzheimer's disease is a prevalent and significant public health concern worldwide. As the elderly population continues to grow, the number of Americans with Alzheimer's disease will too. Currently (in 2023), 6.7 million Americans age 65 and older have Alzheimer's disease. By 2050, that number is projected to reach 12.7 million. Efforts to raise awareness, improve early detection, enhance treatment options, and invest in research are critical to addressing the challenges posed by Alzheimer's disease. With ongoing research and public health initiatives, we hope to gain a better understanding of the disease and develop effective strategies to support individuals living with Alzheimer's and their families.

January is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in Canada. Are you aware of First Link®? It’s an Alzheimer Society of Canada program that aims to ensure that those living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias and their families have access to the right supports and information across the patient journey—from initial diagnosis to every stage of the disease. You can learn more about First Link® here: https://lnkd.in/gfTcZmP4 As a part of our longstanding work in the field of Alzheimer’s, Shift Health recently supported an international panel of experts in a study that underscores the importance of primary care providers (PCPs) in providing holistic, patient-centred dementia care, especially in timely diagnosis. We identified tools/technologies, approaches to clinical practice, and programs and initiatives that may support or enhance the role of primary care in all aspects of dementia care.
