Dementia, primarily caused by Alzheimer’s disease, affects a significant portion of the population globally, with recent studies indicating higher prevalence in rural South Africa, where awareness is lacking. In Malta, dementia cases are expected to rise from 7,800 to over 14,000 by 2050, highlighting the need for improved treatments and knowledge. Meanwhile, a new trial in the UK aims to support minority ethnic carers of dementia patients with tailored online therapeutic tools, recognizing the unique challenges they face. Additionally, Western Sydney University's 'Brain Bootcamp' program has shown promising results, with 70% of participants reducing their dementia risk through simple lifestyle changes. These efforts emphasize the importance of awareness, support for caregivers, and proactive steps to mitigate dementia risk as the population ages. Overall, addressing dementia requires a multifaceted approach involving community education, medical advancements, and supportive interventions for both patients and caregivers.
