Background: Caregiver burden is the stress experienced as a result of caregiving. Despite the increasing number of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients who are cared for at home, little has been published about the caregiver burden pertaining to caregivers of early-onset AD patients. The objective of this study was to examine the difference between the genders with respect to the careburden of early-onset AD caregivers.
