Even in low and middle income countries most deaths occur in older adults. In Europe, the effects of better
education and home ownership upon mortality seem to persist into old age, but these effects may not generalise ...
The prevalence, correlates, detection and control of diabetes among older people in low and middle incomecountries: a 10/66 dementia research group population-based survey.
(PloS Medicine, 2016)
Little is known of the epidemiology of diabetes among older people in low and middle income countries. We aimed to study and compare prevalence, social patterning, correlates, detection, treatment and control of diabetes ...

(PloS ONE, 2012)
Evidence on the association between fish consumption and depression is inconsistent and virtually nonexistent from low- and middle-income countries. Using a standard protocol, we aim to assess the association of fish ...
Reproductive period, endogenous estrogen exposure and dementia incidence among women in Latin America and China: a 10/66 population-based cohort study.
(PloS Medicine, 2018)
Exposure to endogenous estrogen may protect against dementia, but evidence remains equivocal. Such effects
may be assessed more precisely in settings where exogenous estrogen administration is rare. We aimed to ...

importance, this topic has not previously been ...
Frailty and the prediction of dependence and mortality in low- and middle-income countries: a 10/66 population based cohort study.
(BMC Medicine, 2015)
In countries with high incomes, frailty indicators predict adverse outcomes in older people, despite a lack of consensus on definition or measurement. We tested the predictive validity of physical and multidimensional ...
