Association between depression and dementia in older adults

Abstract:
Depression and dementia are both common conditions in older people, and they frequently occur together. Late-life depression affects about 3.0–4.5% of adults at 65 and older (1), while it occurs in up to 20% of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and up to 45% of patients with Vascular dementia (VD) (2).
