摘要：
Gerhard et al clarify our understanding of mortality associated with antipsychotic use in people with dementia, by demonstrating a clear dose relationship and highlighting key questions regarding the relative mortality risk of different atypical antipsychotics. The study also suggests that antipsychotics may confer risks of increased mortality in older people without dementia.
