“…A subset of these studies purposefully included individuals from diverse backgrounds. Outcomes demonstrate that tailored caregiver interventions result in improved caregiver quality of life and increased strategy and skill usage 209–212 . Future interventions specifically tailored to the different variants of FTD will need to be developed specially for diverse populations.…”

“…Outcomes demonstrate that tailored caregiver interventions result in improved caregiver quality of life and increased strategy and skill usage. [209][210][211][212] Future interventions specifically tailored to the different variants of FTD will need to be developed specially for diverse populations. In addition, it is vital that such interventions take into consideration the ethnocultural differences in clinical presentations and the related differences in caregiver perceptions of FTD.…”

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is one of the leading causes of dementia before age 65 and often manifests as abnormal behavior (in behavioral variant FTD) or language impairment (in primary progressive aphasia). FTD's exact clinical presentation varies by culture, language, education, social norms, and other socioeconomic factors; current research and clinical practice, however, is mainly based on studies conducted in North America and Western Europe. Changes in diagnostic criteria and procedures as well as new or adapted cognitive tests are likely needed to take into consideration global diversity. This perspective paper by two professional interest areas of the Alzheimer's Association International Society to Advance Alzheimer's Research and Treatment examines how increasing global diversity impacts the clinical presentation, screening, assessment, and diagnosis of FTD and its treatment and care. It subsequently provides recommendations to address immediate needs to advance global FTD research and clinical practice.

“…1 Asian Americans face a complex and growing range of disease disparities linked with a socioecological context distinct from other communities in the United States. 2-5 As such, a diverse range of multilevel interventions have been explored to address Asian American health disparities, 6-10 which have included educational efforts aimed at health-related knowledge or attitudes, 9 integration of technology to enhance the accessibility of health care or adherence to health behaviors, 10,11 integration of cultural or religious principles as part of community- and faith-based approaches for health promotion, 8,12 and expansion of the accessibility of health-related resources or services. 13 However, systematic exploration of the ways that interpersonal relationships, including those with family members, can also be integrated into Asian American health interventions to enhance the ability to meet interventional goals has been limited.…”

Family Involvement in Asian American Health Interventions: A Scoping Review and Conceptual Model

et al. 2022

Family members play a crucial role in the health of Asian American communities, and their involvement in health interventions can be pivotal in optimizing impact and implementation. To explore how family members can be effectively involved in Asian American health interventions and develop a conceptual framework of methods of involvement at the stages of intervention development, process, and evaluation, this scoping review documented the role of Asian American family members in interventions (across any health objective). Of the 7175 studies identified through database and manual searches, we included 48 studies in the final analysis. Many studies focused on Chinese (54%) or Vietnamese (21%) populations, were conducted in California (44%), and involved spouses (35%) or parents/children (39%). We observed involvement across 3 stages: (1) intervention development (formative research, review process, material development), (2) intervention process (recruitment, receiving the intervention together, receiving a parallel intervention, enlisting support to achieve goals, voluntary intervention support, agent of family-wide change, and participation gatekeepers), and (3) intervention evaluation (received evaluation together, indirect impact evaluation, and feedback during intervention). Impact of family member involvement was both positive (as sources of encouragement, insight, accountability, comfort, and passion) and negative (sources of hindrance, backlash, stigma, obligation, and negative influence). Suggestions for future research interventions include (1) exploring family involvement in South Asian or young adult interventions, (2) diversifying types of family members involved (eg, extended family), and (3) diversifying methods of involvement (eg, family members as implementation agents).
