Facts & Figures - 2022

The Alzheimer’s Association “2022 Alzheimer’s Disease Facts and Figures” report unearthed challenges both doctors and the American public face in understanding and diagnosing mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which is characterized by subtle changes in memory and thinking.
“This special report demonstrates that concerns and confusion around MCI are evident across diverse populations,” said Julia Pechlivanos, Executive Director of the Alzheimer’s Association Northwest Ohio Chapter. As research accelerates, we need to better address cultural concerns, access issues and other factors to ensure health equity and increased participation in clinical trials, among diverse populations”
