مستخلص: The National Center for Health Statistics conducted National Mortality Followback Surveys (NMFS) in 1986 and 1993. The next-of-kin’s report of a physician’s diagnosis of AD before death and a listing of AD or other dementia as the underlying cause increased significantly among women but remained stable among men. Currently, AD is among the top 10 leading causes of death in elderly white men and women in the United States.
