Neurodegenerative disorder of the cns resulting in progressive loss of memory and intellectual functions; begins in the middle or later years; characterized by brain lesions such as neurofibrillary tangles and neuritic plaques.
A progressive, neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of function and death of nerve cells in several areas of the brain leading to loss of cognitive function such as memory and language. Alzheimer's disease (ad) is the most common form of dementia among older people.
Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person's ability to carry out daily activities . Ad begins slowly. It first involves the parts of the brain that control thought, memory and language. People with ad may have trouble remembering things that happened recently or names of people they know. A related problem, mild cognitive impairment (mci), causes more memory problems than normal for people of the same age. Many, but not all, people with mci will develop ad. In ad, over time, symptoms get worse. People may not recognize family members or have trouble speaking, reading or writing. They may forget how to brush their teeth or comb their hair. Later on, they may become anxious or aggressive, or wander away from home. Eventually, they need total care. This can cause great stress for family members who must care for them. Ad usually begins after age 60. The risk goes up as you get older. Your risk is also higher if a family member has had the disease. No treatment can stop the disease. However, some drugs may help keep symptoms from getting worse for a limited time. nih: national institute on aging
