Declarations
:
: SveDem is a national quality register for people with major neurocognitive disorder, where affiliated units register patients at the time of diagnosis. The patients are informed orally and in writing about the SveDem registry, and they may decline participation. The study, including this informed content method, was approved by the Regional Ethical Review Board in Umeå, Sweden (registration number 2017–256-31 M), and performed in accordance with the ethical principles stated in the Declaration of Helsinki. After the data from SveDem was linked with the Swedish Prescribed Drug Register, personal identification numbers were removed by the National Board of Health and Welfare, and data were only presented at group level. No administrative permissions were required to access the raw data.
