This study aims to address this critical knowledge gap by leveraging the diverse and comprehensive data from the All of Us (AoU) Research Program. The specific aims are to: 1) determine the prevalence of dementia among seven Asian American subgroups (Chinese, Filipino, Asian Indian, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Pakistani) and compare it to the prevalence in other racial/ethnic groups; and 2) identify the SDOH factors associated with dementia risk among these subgroups and examine potential differences in these associations.
