阿尔茨海默病及相关痴呆（ADRD）是人口老龄化和整个社会面临的全球性危机。随着全世界ADRD患者数量的急剧增加，科学界再也不能忽视在代表性不足的种族多样化群体中进行ADRD研究的必要性。阿尔茨海默氏症协会国际阿尔茨海默氏症研究和治疗协会（ISTAART; alz.org/ISTAART）包括许多专业兴趣领域（皮亚斯），每个领域都专注于与ADRD相关的主要科学领域。我们利用现有的ISTAART科学家和专家的国际骨干的专业知识，合成一个跨PIA的白色文件，提供了一个简明的“国家的科学”报告的民族因素跨PIA焦点和更新的建议，以解决迫切需要推进ADRD科学跨民族人群。(C)2018年，作者。爱思唯尔公司出版代表老年痴呆症协会
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs) are a global crisis facing the aging population and society as a whole. With the numbers of people with ADRDs predicted to rise dramatically across the world, the scientific community can no longer neglect the need for research focusing on ADRDs among underrepresented ethnoracial diverse groups. The Alzheimer's Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer's Research and Treatment (ISTAART; alz.org/ISTAART) comprises a number of professional interest areas (PIAs), each focusing on a major scientific area associated with ADRDs. We leverage the expertise of the existing international cadre of ISTAART scientists and experts to synthesize a cross-PIA white paper that provides both a concise "state-of-the-science" report of ethnoracial factors across PIA foci and updated recommendations to address immediate needs to advance ADRD science across ethnoracial populations.
