As the population ages, the prevalence of dementia is increasing. Distressing behavioral problems are often part of the illness. This review considers the available evidence for cognitive effects related to music, evidence for the efficacy of music in the management of behavioral problems in dementia, and evidence about the effects of different types of music, their mode of delivery, and any adverse effects. Live music may be more beneficial than recorded. The effect of music may not be lasting, but there is evidence of benefit in studies, which to date are mostly not of high quality.
随着人口老龄化，痴呆症的患病率正在上升。令人苦恼的行为问题往往是这种疾病的一部分。本综述考虑了与音乐相关的认知效应的现有证据、音乐在管理痴呆症行为问题方面的疗效证据，以及不同类型音乐的效果、其传播方式和任何不良影响的证据。现场音乐可能比录制音乐更有益。音乐的效果可能不会持久，但在研究中有证据表明其有益，不过迄今为止这些研究大多质量不高。
