Because of its high prevalence and level of associated morbidity, dementia is already an urgent health and economic issue for the developed world. As public health efforts improve the life expectancy of populations in developing countries, the number of people with dementia worldwide is expected to quadruple by 2050. Effective means of intervention and prevention are thus needed urgently.
