Dementia Cases to Triple by 2050
Update: 2025-12-18
Description
The global dementia population is projected to triple by 2050, with North Africa and the Middle East seeing the largest percentage increase. The study emphasizes the need for global strategies to address this growing burden, including increased investment in research, improved access to diagnosis and care, and public health campaigns focused on risk reduction. Lifestyle factors such as high body mass index, high blood sugar, smoking, and alcohol consumption play a crucial role in dementia risk, and managing these factors could reduce the projected increase by up to fifteen percent.
