Dementia prevalence estimated by a fitted linear time trend on the 2000-2016 data on 65+-y-old U.S. individuals. The unadjusted models do not adjust the samples to compositional changes. The adjusted models adjust the distributions of age, education, income, race and ethnicity, foreign-born status, marital status, hypertension, diabetes, stroke, and heart problems in the 2000 and 2016 samples to the overall sample mean between 2000 and 2016.
