In a 4-year follow-up of 1,042 randomly sampled elderly people (aged 65+), levels of dementia were assessed using a two-phase case finding procedure (screening followed by clinical interview) among survivors. Clinical information on those not re-interviewed was provided by death certificates, hospital case notes or postal questionnaires. The unweighted 4-year cumulative incidence of dementia was 4.3%, with age-specific rates of 0.9, 2.8, 5.2, 9.0 and 8.7% for the age groups 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, and 85-89, respectively.
在对1042名随机抽样的65岁及以上老年人进行的4年随访中,采用两阶段病例发现程序(筛查后进行临床访谈)对幸存者的痴呆症水平进行了评估。未再次接受访谈者的临床信息由死亡证明、医院病历或邮政调查问卷提供。痴呆症的未加权4年累积发病率为4.3%,65 - 69岁、70 - 74岁、75 - 79岁、80 - 84岁和85 - 89岁年龄组的年龄别发病率分别为0.9%、2.8%、5.2%、9.0%和8.7%。
