However, there are few reports in Mexico based on formal tests and with a clinical approach based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5). Objective: This study estimates the prevalence of the main types of dementia among elderly people living in the community in Mexico City. Methods: A population-based, two-step study was conducted, including 6,204 elderly individuals aged 60 or above with in-home assessment. All participants were screened for cognitive impairment; those who presented some cognitive problem underwent a standardized neurological examination. Each diagnosis was based on the criteria for dementia in the DSM-5, and the final consensus diagnosis of dementia was determined by an expert panel. Results: The global estimated prevalence of dementia in the Mexican population was 7.8% met the criteria for Alzheimer\u2019s disease, 4.3% for vascular dementia, and 2.1% for mixed dementia. The prevalence of dementia was higher in women than in men (15.3% versus 12.5%, respectively). Conclusion: These results provide evidence to propose strategies for Latin American countries where dementia represents a challenge due to the heterogeneity of the populations and socioeconomic disparities, requiring early diagnosis and at the first levels of care.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/jad-220012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,12]],"date-time":"2022-08-12T10:57:08Z","timestamp":1660301828000},"page":"931-941","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Prevalence of Dementia and Main Subtypes in Mexico: The Study on Aging and Dementia in Mexico (SADEM)"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"89","author":[{"given":"Teresa","family":"Juarez-Cedillo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Investigaci\u00f3n Epidemiol\u00f3gica y en Servicios de Salud, \u00c1rea de Envejecimiento, Centro M\u00e9dico Nacional Siglo XXI, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico"},{"name":"Unidad de Investigaci\u00f3n en Epidemiolog\u00eda Cl\u00ednica, Hospital General Regional No 1 Carlos Mcgregor S\u00e1nchez Navarro, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Evangelina","family":"Gonzelez-Figueroa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Investigaci\u00f3n en Epidemiolog\u00eda Cl\u00ednica, Hospital General Regional No 1 Carlos Mcgregor S\u00e1nchez Navarro, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lidia","family":"Gutierez-Gutierez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology and Psychiatry, Instituto Nacional de Ciencias M\u00e9dicas y Nutrici\u00f3n Salvador Zubir\u00e1n, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sara G.","family":"Aguilar-Navarro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geriatrics & Neurology Fellowship, and Department of Geriatric Medicine, Instituto Nacional de Ciencias M\u00e9dicas y Nutrici\u00f3n Salvador Zubir\u00e1n, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Juan Carlos","family":"Garcia-Cruz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Atenci\u00f3n Geriatrica Hospitalaria, Divisi\u00f3n de Calidad, Hospital de Especialidades, Centro M\u00e9dico Nacional Siglo XXI, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jorge","family":"Escobedo de la Pe\u00f1a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Unidad de Investigaci\u00f3n en Epidemiolog\u00eda Cl\u00ednica, Hospital General Regional No 1 Carlos Mcgregor S\u00e1nchez Navarro, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alan","family":"Suerna-Hernandez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, Mexico City, Mexico"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","reference":[{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"63","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jalz.2012.11.007","article-title":"The global prevalence of dementia: A systematic review and metaanalysis","volume":"9","author":"Prince","year":"2013","journal-title":"Alzheimers Dement"},{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref3","first-page":"153","article-title":"Aging in Mexico: Population trends and emerging issues","volume":"57","author":"Angel","year":"2017","journal-title":"Gerontologist"},{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1312","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(12)62087-X","article-title":"Ageing in the European Union","volume":"381","author":"Rechel","year":"2013","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1050","DOI":"10.1177\/0898264311421199","article-title":"Prevalence and incidence rates of dementia and cognitive impairment no dementia in the Mexican population: Data from the Mexican Health and Aging Study","volume":"23","author":"Mejia-Arango","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Aging Health"},{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"464","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(08)61002-8","article-title":"Prevalence of dementia in Latin America, India, and China: A population-based cross-sectional survey","volume":"372","author":"Llibre Rodriguez","year":"2008","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"10.3233\/JAD-220012_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1071","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinph.2015.02.001","article-title":"Non-invasive electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain, spinal cord, roots and peripheral nerves: Basic principles and procedures for routine clinical and research application.
