Real world data analysis of frontotemporal dementia: Implications for future clinical research

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a progressive decline of cognitive abilities associated with other neuropsychiatric comorbidities. A real-world data (RWD) analysis of a large electronic healthcare records (EHR) database identified the comorbidities of FTD. Deidentified EHRs in the TriNetX Network database from>150,000,000 individuals in the United States established an FTD Cohort (ICD-10 Code G31.0) of adult patients who visited a healthcare provider in 2022. The non-FTD cohort were age-matched individuals who had not received a diagnosis of ICD-10 Code G31.0, and who had visited a healthcare provider in 2022.
