Perceptions of cognitive decline among American Indian and Alaska Native elders.
Introduction: American Indian and Alaska Native elders aged ≥ 65 years are experiencing increased life expectancy. Elders are critical to intergenerational knowledge, yet limited data exist on the health challenges faced by this group.
Methods: This study engaged individuals attending the National Indian Council on Aging 2021 Annual Meeting in Reno, Nevada. A 19-question survey, designed to examine perceptions about cognitive decline and to identify comfort with potential risk and protective factors, was disseminated to 50 participants.
Results: Participants indicated that they are concerned about cognitive decline, are willing to plan for their future care and cognitive testing, and articulated a desire for Tribally led long-term support services.
Discussion: This study found similar results to studies on White individuals, which include a lack of knowledge, stigma around the aging process, and gaps in services available. More work is necessary to address the gap in literature and policy.
Highlights: American Indian and Alaska Natives (AI/ANs) are underrepresented in literature on Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD).AI/ANs believe that they will experience cognitive decline as they age.AI/ANs indicate a willingness to plan for future care and participate in future research on ADRD.
期刊介绍：
Alzheimer''s & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring (DADM) is an open access, peer-reviewed, journal from the Alzheimer''s Association® that will publish new research that reports the discovery, development and validation of instruments, technologies, algorithms, and innovative processes. Papers will cover a range of topics interested in the early and accurate detection of individuals with memory complaints and/or among asymptomatic individuals at elevated risk for various forms of memory disorders. The expectation for published papers will be to translate fundamental knowledge about the neurobiology of the disease into practical reports that describe both the conceptual and methodological aspects of the submitted scientific inquiry. Published topics will explore the development of biomarkers, surrogate markers, and conceptual/methodological challenges. Publication priority will be given to papers that 1) describe putative surrogate markers that accurately track disease progression, 2) biomarkers that fulfill international regulatory requirements, 3) reports from large, well-characterized population-based cohorts that comprise the heterogeneity and diversity of asymptomatic individuals and 4) algorithmic development that considers multi-marker arrays (e.g., integrated-omics, genetics, biofluids, imaging, etc.) and advanced computational analytics and technologies.
