摘要：

This article highlights the current state of dementia research in ethnic minority populations. Studies are sparse, and an increased effort to recruit and retain minorities for dementia studies is required to properly treat and serve these families. An examination of research in the areas of minority caregiver issues (service needs, service use, affiliation with a support group) and patient evaluation is provided.
