abstract = {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 $7.3\%$ in men and by $9.7\%$ in women.
Dementia mortality rates fell by $12\%$ in men but did not
change significantly in women. Non-dementia mortality rates
fell by $7\%$ in both men and women. The combined changes
resulted in stable total ALE in men and increasing total ALE
in women, whereas ALE with dementia increased in men and
remained stable in women.The observed decline in dementia
incidence did not translate into a reduction in the burden
of the disease.The online version contains supplementary
material available at 10.1186/s13195-025-01911-7.},
