German to English Medical Medical (general) Dementia
hi,

could someone tell me what the following means please as i really aren't very sure about it?

any help would be great!

this is just for context:..... (das Erkrankungsrisiko nimmt zu, je aelter wir werden. unter den 60-70 Jaehrigen sind etwa 1-2% der Menschen betroffen. Zwischen 70 und 80 Jahren sind es bereits 5-7% und zwischen 80 und 90 Jahren sind es 15-20%. Das heisst, fast jeder Fuenfte ist in dieser Altersgruppe von einer Demenzerkrankung betroffen. Insgesamt leiden eta 1,5% der Menschen in Deutschland an einer Demenz)

this is the bit I'm not sure about:....

"Betrachtet man nur die Gruppe der Erkrankten, so sind derzeit etwa 60% der schwer und mittelschwer Demenzkrankten ueber 80 Jahre alt"

thanks

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): franglish

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
