Biopsychosocial risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias in UK immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA)

2026-05-13

Abstract excerpt

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region represents the area of greatest projected growth in instances of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRDs) globally, yet, it remains virtually uncharacterized in health studies of aging and ADRDs. The UK Biobank is one of the largest and well characterized datasets of aging immigrants in the UK, offering an unprecedented opportunity to identify risk factors fo...
