AB - We examined whether changes in dementia incidence and mortality have led to changes in the average number of years lived with and without dementia over a ten-year period in Germany.We calculated dementia rates using two samples of people aged 65 + from a German health insurance company, each comprising more than 100,000 people in 2006/08 and 2016/18. We examined time trends using negative binomial regression models and estimated average life expectancy (ALE) for people with and without dementia by fitting a three-stage Markov health-disease model.Dementia incidence rates decreased by 7.3
