Participants were followed for up to 36\u2009months (median 20\u2009months). Recorded aspiration pneumonia was analysed as an exposure available in the analytic dataset. Multivariable Cox, logistic and negative binomial models were adjusted for age, sex, dementia subtype, baseline dementia severity and baseline Mini\u2010Mental State Examination (MMSE) score. Exact aspiration\u2010event dates and clinically important domains including frailty, functional status, residence before admission, swallowing assessment, oral\u2010health measures, medication burden and comorbidity burden were not available in the dataset.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Recorded aspiration pneumonia occurred in 24% of participants. After adjustment, the cohort\u2010level mortality signal remained imprecise (HR 1.65, 95% CI 0.85\u20133.21). In contrast, aspiration pneumonia was independently associated with higher odds of hospitalisation (OR 2.02, 95% CI 1.29\u20133.16) and greater cumulative length of stay among those admitted (IRR 1.54, 95% CI 1.17\u20132.01).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In this dementia\u2010specific cohort, recorded aspiration pneumonia was common and consistently associated with greater subsequent inpatient use. The findings support interpreting recorded aspiration pneumonia as a pragmatic clinical marker of heightened service dependence within a broader frailty and illness context and underscore the value of
