Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The number of people suffering from dementia in Asia (22.9 million) is more than twice the numbers in Europe (10.5 million) or the Americas (9.4 million), as recorded in the global impact of dementia in the World Alzheimer Report 2015.1 This dementia tsunami will continue to rise and the estimated number is 67 million in 2050 in Asia alone, which will be 2 to 3 times higher than the estimates for Europe (19 million) or the Americas (30 million). Devising and implementing preventive strategies against dementia is of paramount importance. The proposed project will be able to establish the associations between VRFs and cognition across cohorts with cultural, ethnical, and demographical variations. This study will generate data for evidence-based knowledge for globally implementable and effective preventive strategies for cognitive impairment and dementia.
