Why it matters

Latin America faces a high and growing dementia burden, yet its populations are underrepresented in prevention trials. This study demonstrates that a structured, culturally adapted lifestyle intervention is feasible and can improve cognitive trajectories in at-risk older adults, extending evidence for multidomain strategies to low- and middle-income settings.
