虽然全球2400万痴呆症患者中有三分之二生活在中低收入国家，但很少有研究支持这些地区的政策制定。在非传染性疾病中，痴呆症（与其他慢性非传染性疾病一样，与长期残疾而不是死亡率有更多联系）相对而言没有得到足够的重视。国际协定、计划和政策准则都呼吁结束年龄歧视，并注重减少因贫穷和健康不良后果而造成的不利处境。社会保障、获得优质适龄保健和解决残疾问题都是关键问题。然而，迄今为止，在解决这些问题方面进展甚微。在这篇综述中，我们概述了当前针对老年人的国际政策议程，以及其与痴呆症和其他致残性非传染性疾病患者的具体相关性。我们认为流行病学研究的潜力，以提高认识，完善政策议程，并促进行动，使用的传播策略的例子，由10/66痴呆症研究小组。
Abstract While two thirds of the 24 million people with dementia worldwide live in low and middle income countries, very little research has been conducted to support policy making in these regions. Among the non-communicable diseases, dementia (in common with other chronic NCDs linked more to long-term disability than to mortality) has been relatively under-prioritized. International agreements, plans and policy guidelines have called for an end to ageist discrimination and a focus upon reducing disadvantage arising from poverty and the consequences of ill health. Social protection, access to good quality age-appropriate healthcare and addressing the problem of disability are all key issues. However, as yet, little progress has been made in addressing these concerns. In this review we outline the current international policy agenda for older individuals, and its specific relevance to those with dementia and other disabling non-communicable diseases. We consider the potential for epidemiological research to raise awareness, refine the policy agenda, and promote action, using the example of the dissemination strategy developed by the 10/66 Dementia Research Group.
