Abstract

As the world’s population ages, dementia from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is projected to increase astronomically; individuals with Down syndrome (DS) are counted among those virtually guaranteed to develop AD pathology and, if they live long enough, AD dementia [1, 2]. DS is characterized by intellectual disability and for decades featured a high incidence of congenital heart abnormalities leading to early mortality. However, recent medical advances drastically improved the life expectancy in DS; more than a quarter of a million people living with DS in the United States are now projected to age long enough to develop AD [2].
