1. Methodology for dementia prevalence estimate We conducted a systematic review of the global literature on the prevalence of dementia (1980‐2009) and a meta‐analysis to estimate prevalence and numbers affected, aged 60 years and over in 21 Global Burden of Disease regions. Search strategy: We searched PubMed/ Medline databases using the search terms ("Dementia"[Mesh] AND (("Prevalence"[Mesh]) OR "Epidemiology"[Mesh])). Inclusion criteria: Population‐based studies of the prevalence of dementia among people aged 60 years and over (according to DSM‐IV or ICD‐10 criteria, or similar clinical criteria), for which the field work started on or after 1st January 1980. Exclusion criteria: Studies of prevalence from the follow‐up phase of on an incidence cohort; out‐of‐date population registers (more than three years prior to the survey); nursing home or residential care populations, primary care attendees or other unrepresentative service‐user populations; ascertainment based on help‐seeking and/ or receipt of dementia care services; studies where ‘dementia’ was diagnosed purely on the basis of cognitive impairment; two phase studies, in which screening procedures were inadequate and two phase methodology was not properly applied; studies of the prevalence of Alzheimer’s disease or other subtypes. Technical notes: For China, we relied on a recently published systematic review and meta‐analysis that included both English language and Chinese publications from 1980‐20041, supplemented with studies published in English and not included in that meta‐analysis2‐4. All eligible studies were systematically coded for their study design and quality (sample size, study design, response proportion and diagnostic assessment) Data extraction: We extracted, or calculated from data provided, numerators and denominators for each age and gender group reported. Meta‐analytical methods for estimating dementia prevalence within regions Within each GBD region, where there were sufficient data to conduct a meta‐analysis, we used a random effect exponential (Poisson) model to assess effects of age and sex on dementia prevalence. Age was coded as the mean for each age group reported. Random effects are assumed to have a gamma distribution – the
2
alpha coefficient is an estimate of overdispersion and an index of between study heterogeneity. For each region we ran two models, one for the effect of age, and one for the main effects of age and sex, and an interaction between age and sex. We then applied the relevant mean ages and sex codings to the coefficients estimated from the models, to estimate prevalence in five year age‐bands from 60‐89 years, and for those aged 90 and over, for both sexes combined (from the age only model), and for men and women separately (from the age and sex model).

B. EXCLUDED STUDIES We provide details of all studies that were considered for inclusion in the review, on the basis of review of the study abstracts, but were not finally included. This was because, either a) on reading the paper, the study was found not to meet inclusion criteria, or b) the study may have, or did meet inclusion criteria, but we were not able to obtain the required prevalence data for the review (‘pending’ papers). This circumstance arose when i) we could not obtain a copy of the paper, and had only the abstract to go on ii) the required information was not provided in the paper We have collated information about excluded papers (Table 2) and pending papers (Table 3) separately, by region, country and year of publication. Studies excluded, because they did not meet inclusion criteria Ninety‐eight papers were excluded after detailed review of the publication. The most common reasons for exclusion were; duplicate or overlapping publications (45 publications); the outcome was not a clinical diagnosis of dementia syndrome (21 publications); prevalence estimate from the follow‐up phase of a cohort study (12 publications); data collection pre‐1980 (8 publications); not a population‐based representative sample (5 publications); ascertainment of dementia diagnosis from service contact or registers (4 publications). Some studies were excluded for more than one of these reasons. Table 2 Studies excluded because they did not meet the inclusion criteria, with reasons for exclusion, by region and country

‘Pending’ studies Twenty studies were potentially eligible, but could not be used in this review. In three cases we were not able to obtain the publication referred to in the abstract. In one case, a prevalence study appeared to have been conducted, but we were not able to identify the index publication containing prevalence data. In one case we were not able to determine eligibility from information contained in the publication. For the remaining 15 studies, the data presented was not in the form that allowed us to extract and use it, usually because no age‐specific estimates were provided. In all of thee cases we have attempted to contact authors for further information.

3. The quality of the studies included in the survey a. Study design. 70% of dementia prevalence studies used two or more phases. Unfortunately, most did not sample screen negatives, and those that did often did not weight back appropriately. For 79% of multiphase studies (49% of all studies) the design was not correctly applied and/ or analysed appropriately. b. Scope of diagnostic assessment. Dementia diagnosis requires cognitive impairment (and decline) in memory and other domains of intellectual function, with consequent social or occupational impairment. Other causes including psychosis, depression and delirium should be excluded. Only 43% of studies included multidomain cognitive testing, disability assessment, clinical interview and informant interview. Informant interviews were most likely to be omitted. c. Sample size. A study of 500 participants could estimate a true prevalence of 6% with a precision of +/‐ 2.1%. Precision increases to +/‐ 1.2% for a sample size of 1500 and to +/‐ 0.8% for a sample size of 3000. Most studies had sample sizes smaller than 1500. Nearly a third of Western European studies had sample sizes smaller than 500. Sample sizes tended to be larger in East Asia and in LMIC studies generally. d. Response proportion. Participation in studies of dementia prevalence was generally adequate to good; only six studies (4%) reported fewer than 60% of eligible participants responding, while more than half reported 80% or more responding. However, 15% of studies did not report response rates. e. Overall quality. Mean scores for the ad hoc quality index varied significantly between regions. Overall study quality was high for the Latin American region, and particularly poor for Asia Pacific High Income and South East Asia studies. Study quality did not differ significantly between HIC and LMIC. Study had improved over time – from a mean of 7.3 for studies conducted in the 1980s, to 7.8 for the 1990s, to 9.0 for studies conducted this century.

5. Methodology for dementia incidence estimate We conducted a systematic review of the global literature on the incidence of dementia (1980‐2011) and a meta analysis to estimate the incidence and numbers of new cases, aged 60 years and over in 21 Global Burden of Disease regions. Search strategy: We updated a search conducted in 2009 for the revision of the Global Burden of Disease report to 15th November 2011, using PubMed/ Medline databases and the following search terms ‐ ("Dementia"[Mesh] AND (("Incidence"[Mesh]) OR "Epidemiology"[Mesh])). Inclusion criteria: Population‐based studies of the incidence of dementia among people aged 60 years and over (according to DSM‐IV or ICD‐10 criteria, or similar clinical criteria), for which the baseline cohort recruitment started on or after 1st January 1980. Exclusion criteria: Studies of incidence from the follow‐up phase of on an incidence cohort; out‐of‐date population registers (more than three years prior to the survey); nursing home or residential care populations, primary care attendees or other unrepresentative service‐user populations; ascertainment based on help‐seeking and/ or receipt of dementia care services; studies where ‘dementia’ was diagnosed purely on the basis of cognitive impairment; two phase studies, in which screening procedures were inadequate and two phase methodology was not properly applied; studies of the incidence of Alzheimer’s disease or other subtypes. Technical notes: Five potentially eligible studies had to be excluded, because case (numerator) and person years (denominator) data could not be extracted1‐5. Data extraction: We extracted, or attempted to calculate from the data provided, number of incident cases and person years denominators for each age group reported. Meta‐analytical methods for estimating dementia prevalence within regions As for the meta‐analysis of prevalence data we used a random effect exponential (Poisson) model to assess the effect of age on the incidence of dementia. We conducted separate meta‐regressions on all studies combined, and then separately for HIC, LMIC, and for regions where there was sufficient data to attempt a meta‐analysis (Western Europe, North America and Latin America and the Caribbean combined). We then applied relevant mean ages to the coefficients estimated from the models, to estimate incidence in five year age‐bands from 60‐95 years, and for those aged 95 and over. We further estimated the effect of region and of HIC vs. LMIC location. Estimating numbers of incident cases for each GBD world region We estimated the numbers of annual incident cases by first estimating the numbers at risk (total population in each age group, minus numbers with prevalent dementia), and then by applying the appropriate annual incidence rate (we used the Western Europe rate for the European regions, the North American rate for the North American region and the Latin American rate for the Latin American and Caribbean regions, and the HIC or LMIC rates as appropriate for other regions).
