Racial/ethnic differences in neuropsychiatric disturbances associated with incident dementia
Elizabeth A Wise, Haijuan Yan, Esther Oh, Jeannie-Marie Leoutsakos. Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2024-07-05
Topic: Health services, long-term care and technology
NPS were present in 95% in at least one time point. After adjusting for covariates, there were no statistically significant differences in NPI-Q total scores among racial/ethnic groups at the time of and after dementia diagnosis. Findings from our prospective cohort study suggest that when individuals are matched at the time of conversion to dementia, there are no racial/ethnic differences in NPS. HIGHLIGHTS: Neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia are frequent and increase caregiver burden.Prior studies reported more neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) in Black compared to White individuals with dementia.National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center Black, White, and Hispanic participants did not differ in NPS at the time of dementia diagnosis.

How this study scored 63/100
Published in a leading specialty journal, and it is a cohort study following people over time. Scored zero for sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multi-centre collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 35 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 63 out of 100.
