00:00:00
and for inviting me to speak and a great to be here um just to
00:00:04
say very briefly who i am and uh obstructive i'm a medical qualifies
00:00:11
and then went on to train a genealogy and have spent my life
00:00:14
time really doing public health research um mentoring and training uh pickles
00:00:21
a specialist as well but i did neurology for quite awhile and what
00:00:25
i was doing that um i was very aware that gender aspect
00:00:30
but mostly and uh represented i would see um women and young girls going on adolescents
00:00:37
with epilepsy and revise that the menstrual cycle for example is really important factor
00:00:42
and i think it's taken decades for this kind of thinking to come along so this is really and such an important area
00:00:49
i spent my korean looking at dimension um and brain imaging and i'm going
00:00:54
to share with you a couple of the um some the result
00:00:57
uh the dementia has been mentioned it's been alluded to many times as being a very important
00:01:03
conditions and he is um it's very complex condition it's the syndrome not a disease
00:01:09
as such i think the disease having a very specific sort of boundaries and so on existing room and it's partly defined
00:01:15
by how we um expect people to uh and as it
00:01:19
were function within society 'cause its combination of cognition
00:01:23
and um functional ability to confirm the today in any
00:01:28
given society so it is as a mother speak
00:01:32
comedy divorce the environment and life goes from the expression of dimension societies
00:01:39
so where have from high and other colleagues things starting to mention of course we've been studying it largely in high income countries
00:01:46
but also there's been a lot of work done in a middle income countries which originally people so that there was very little can
00:01:51
ensure in um lower middle income countries and it was somehow wasting disease but of course that is absolutely not the case
00:01:58
and there is a very important uh group studies across the world calls the ten sixty six studies
00:02:04
um and the lead is martin prints from king's college london but it's
00:02:09
that's huge um collaborate collaboration across the across the world or some big gaps
00:02:15
but it is really demonstrated variation across lower and middle income countries and it also
00:02:19
is a rich source for interrogation of gender effects with in different localities
00:02:25
i can talk a little bit about what we've learned within the u. k. and um what you can
00:02:31
see here is down um oh well we've been thinking study it over many decades to this
00:02:38
is this a big studies of dimension looking at dimension in representative population just on the
00:02:43
ground so when you get the numbers when all the speakers give numbers about
00:02:47
who's affected and how many and how many women and so on and what ages
00:02:51
take it comes from basic epidemiological population studies that must be representative of
00:02:57
the relevant population so we do those in the u. k. and i've given the results
00:03:03
that you can see on the right is a cool cops function than eighteen studies
00:03:07
and what we've done is repeat them across time intervals to the good change in different generations
00:03:12
of older people age sixty five and over more you can see in that slot
00:03:17
it's a costly this is just a concatenation of where for thirty years of
00:03:21
research but it shows you the dementia in the u. k. if you
00:03:25
hold your diagnostic methods steady because it's the syndrome is a difficult thing
00:03:29
it's got fuzzy boundaries but if you hold a diagnostic methods steady
00:03:34
we have seen a drop in the proportion of people at given ages you have dimension
00:03:40
so that's what you're saying with the blue and the red on that in that slot and this the
00:03:45
drop is pretty significant it's it's over twenty sentences in the province the proportion at any one time
00:03:52
with the disorder and we see the same thing with the new occurrence of dimension every time well
00:03:59
there are differences in the gender save for the drop in providence is not say difference in men when
00:04:04
but for instance the new occurrence to mention it's at the drop is much bigger
00:04:09
in men in this isn't women so the incidence drop by forty percent
00:04:13
and the instance did not read or not i'm not saying women
00:04:16
so the gain over two decades with seemingly in men
00:04:21
so that's very interesting things going on across time in um gender with gender
00:04:26
as well as uh uh between the genders in as any one time
00:04:32
uh and you can see that agenda is associated with the risk of demands as
00:04:36
as as has been said many times and that's in the boston that
00:04:40
uh one point six times if you're women human one point one six is taking age
00:04:44
differences into account we have to bear in mind that men die uh yeah
00:04:48
they die at early stages with their frail they die sooner
00:04:52
or later stage of the frailties nietzsche and if women
00:04:55
than women what's often we seem to be tougher spice having and more of these different conditions we talked about
00:05:03
but a each is incredibly important and uh this h. survival difference between generations is very
00:05:08
what's taking to cancel things we talk about as being more common in women
00:05:13
in uh if they're in the oldest old and some of us is
00:05:16
accounted for by this bible differential which and an eighties incredibly important
00:05:21
because most uh mentioned has in very old people cause early onset is incredibly important
00:05:27
body movements because nobody wants it nine times agenda uh jane um the
00:05:32
a demonstration common in women but in the younger age groups
00:05:35
nearly once it's it's a more even more even
00:05:40
so it's actually different at different ages if we talk about dimension we we talk about this one thing it isn't one thing
00:05:48
the two decade to darcy um but of um dimension and
00:05:52
also healthy brain imaging has allowed us to get dependence
00:05:55
and these this last year on the left hand on the left and the whole thing life expectancy type
00:06:00
data and they show the population the left on such as population in
00:06:04
nineteen ninety one and the rice and the the twenty ten
00:06:08
uh studies and they show you absolute life expectancy we should the top block lines
00:06:13
um and they show you the differences between men and women salesmen women on the right man on that
00:06:20
and you can see 'em you can see that the man that the change
00:06:25
i'm sorry it's men on the top and women on the bottom here you can see that
00:06:29
the change in life expectancy for men is is um pretty basic um and these
00:06:36
lines yeah a red blue and yet and uh and
00:06:41
and three of the years with high dependency need independence in their depends c. and they
00:06:47
show you the changes of course the two decades uh by gender um what he's
00:06:53
what that really shows is that it's not as new wants a it's more new
00:06:57
wants to just women having more uh and life with a inc increase dependency
00:07:04
uh we we see women having more of the life
00:07:08
life has increased by considerably for both sexes
00:07:12
and women have increased their not pushy in low dependency state
00:07:17
so these kinds of population based studies allow us to interrogate these gender differences
00:07:22
for not just the biological findings but also for the social finding
00:07:27
so i'm gonna record the um i think it's incredibly important well learning from the population based studies
00:07:32
is the life course aspects of seem to be very important to me
00:07:36
maybe driving these changes into mentioned in the oldest age groups
00:07:40
and so i'd like to introduce um will reinforce the message we've already had conti force
