The number of LTC residents is expected to increase by 58% (from 73,900 to 116,800). Driven mainly by shifts in population education distribution, the number of people with dementia is projected to decrease by 29% among those with basic education, while increasing by 215% and 260% among those with secondary and tertiary education, respectively. If both dementia incidence and mortality decrease as projected for overall mortality, the number of people with dementia and LTC residents would rise by 67% and 73%, respectively. If the declining trend in LTC use observed prior to 2018 persists, the number of LTC residents could decrease by 10% by 2040.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Even under optimistic assumptions of declining dementia incidence and mortality, the burden of dementia on health and social care systems is projected to persist.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/14034948261471053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,21]],"date-time":"2026-08-21T04:52:12Z","timestamp":1787287932000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Future trends in dementia incidence and mortality: projecting the burden of dementia on long-term care in Finland by 2040"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1220-9472","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Guzman-Castillo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Helsinki Institute for Demography and Population Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"},{"name":"MedEngine Oy, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kaarina","family":"Korhonen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helsinki Institute for Demography and Population Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"},{"name":"Max Planck \u2013 University of Helsinki Center for Social Inequalities in Population Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael","family":"Murphy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Social Policy, London School of Economics and Political Science, London, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pekka","family":"Martikainen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helsinki Institute for Demography and Population Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"},{"name":"Max Planck \u2013 University of Helsinki Center for Social Inequalities in Population Health, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","unstructured":"European Commission Eurostat Corselli-Nordblad L Strandell H.
