The hope is that this provides a platform for people starting out in the dementia research field to make it easier to incorporate an SDOD lens, by knowing what evidence we do have and where the gaps are

...all evidence linking social determinants to dementia across 6 domains (education, food environment, housing, SES, physical environment, and social inclusion) identifying where there are reviews/meta-analyses, where there is only primary evidence, and where we have nothing

Great to work on this with UK colleagues Naaheed Mukadam, Gill Livingston (@uclpsychiatry.bsky.social), and Carol Brayne (@cph.bsky.social). Susanne Roehr, and colleagues from Uni of Auckland

Interested in learning more about population-level approaches to dementia risk reduction?

Check out our Population-Level Approaches to Dementia Risk Reduction (PLADRR) research group webpages: coghealth.net.au/population-b... including our evidence hub!

By comparing against our previous work on what population-level, low-agency interventions are effective at lowering dementia risk factors (see: doi.org/10.1016/j.ec...) we make 4 recommendations for new policies, and 7 recommendations for policies that could be strengthened

3/

We find a general balance across reach and agency (see figure).

But with reports of a trend towards individual-level and high-agency interventions (see: health.org.uk/reports-and-...).
