Description
A research team compares dementia risk factors in two care settings in Brazil in this 2025 study. Changeable risk factors, such as blood pressure, hearing, and lifestyle, are targets for public health, and the team asked how they look in primary care versus a specialist clinic.
Patients came from a government home care program and from tertiary memory clinics. The team gathered background data, risk profiles, thinking tests, and blood samples. Fifty-nine primary care patients and sixty-three clinic patients took part, with mean ages near seventy-two and seventy. Comparing the two groups shows where prevention efforts in everyday care could gain most.
