Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that schizophrenia increases the risk of developing dementia later in life?

Yes. A 2024 literature review and a systematic review/meta-analysis both report that people with schizophrenia or psychotic disorders have a higher risk of developing dementia later in life, and a reference article states the same association directly.
