⭐ META-ANALYSIS: Hospital delirium --> devastating long-term outcomes 253 studies, 137,000 pts: • 5.4x dementia risk • 2.8x institutionalisation • 2.5x mortality • 1.7x readmission ⚠️ Delirium = a serious acute problem AND a risk warning. ➡️ All pts deserve robust delirium assessment

We reassessed the @TheLancet 14 dementia risk factors and added poverty, wealth shocks, income inequality, & HIV. This provides a larger estimation of preventable dementia & exposes gender inequities with larger burdens in women. Out in @eBioMedicine bit.ly/4nU30fU. Great leadership of Cyprian Mostert and congrats all authors: @MomohChi , Andrea Sylvia Winkler, Connor McLaughlin, @HarrisAEyre , @Mohamed03966736, Kirti Ranchod, @DominicTrepel , @vradenburg3 , William Hynes,@FiegsZA , Shehzad Ali, Najat E.
