INTRODUCTION
While Latin America (LatAm) is facing an increasing burden of dementia due to the rapid aging of the population, it remains underrepresented in dementia research, diagnostics, and care.
METHODS
In 2023, the Alzheimer's Association hosted its eighth satellite symposium in Mexico, highlighting emerging dementia research, priorities, and challenges within LatAm.
RESULTS
Significant initiatives in the region, including intracountry support, showcased their efforts in fostering national and international collaborations; genetic studies unveiled the unique genetic admixture in LatAm; researchers conducting emerging clinical trials discussed ongoing culturally specific interventions; and the urgent need to harmonize practices and studies, improve diagnosis and care, and use affordable biomarkers in the region was highlighted.
DISCUSSION
The myriad of topics discussed at the 2023 AAIC satellite symposium highlighted the growing research efforts in LatAm, providing valuable insights into dementia biology, genetics, epidemiology, treatment, and care.
简介
随着拉丁美洲（LatAm）人口的快速老龄化，痴呆症负担日益加重，但该地区在痴呆症研究、诊断和护理方面的代表性仍然不足。
方法
2023 年，阿尔茨海默病协会在墨西哥举办了第八届卫星研讨会，重点介绍了拉丁美洲新兴的痴呆症研究、优先事项和挑战。
结果
该地区的重要举措，包括国内支持，展示了他们在促进国家和国际合作方面的努力；遗传研究揭示了拉丁美洲独特的遗传混合；正在进行新兴临床试验的研究人员讨论了正在进行的文化特异性干预措施；迫切需要协调该地区的实践和研究，改善诊断和护理，并使用负担得起的生物标志物。
讨论
在 2023 年 AAIC 卫星研讨会上讨论的众多主题强调了拉丁美洲日益增长的研究努力，为痴呆症生物学、遗传学、流行病学、治疗和护理提供了有价值的见解。
