lpv:translated text	"An alarming statistic comes from the 2009 report on Alzheimer’s disease: an estimated 35.6 million people worldwide are suffering from dementia in all its forms. This estimate is constantly being revised upwards in Europe, where the average age of the population is rising rapidly. It is therefore important to set up a statistical data sharing network, through the Member States, and a platform for coordinating research into the causes, prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Considering that early diagnosis can help keep healthcare costs down throughout Europe, it is also fundamental to share out the level of financial investment and draw up policies at European level to encourage targeted prevention. I must also emphasise that it is important to take into account the specific needs of women, who account for twice the number of sufferers and a disproportionate number of carers in the areas of medical and social research, health and social policies. Alzheimer’s disease is a major challenge to European society. It is only by making a joint effort that we will be able to address the social and health consequences of dementia and provide services and support for people suffering from neurodegenerative diseases, as well as for their families."@en1
