Alzheimer

Assalamualaikum .. Hello world!

Did you know what Alzheimer is?

Alzheimer disease also known in medical literature as Alzheimer Disease, is the most common form of dementia .. There is no cure for the disease, which worsens as it progresses, and eventually leads to death .. Although Alzheimer's disease develops differently for every individual, there are many common symptoms .. Early symptoms are often mistakenly thought to be 'age-related' concerns, or manifestations of stress .. In the early stages, the most common symptom is difficulty in remembering recent events .. When AD is suspected, the diagnosis is usually confirmed with tests that evaluate behaviour and thinking abilities, often followed by a brain scan if available ..

As the disease advances, symptoms can include confusion, irritability and aggression, mood swings, trouble with language, and long-term memoryloss .. As the sufferer declines they often withdraw from family and society .. Gradually, bodily functions are lost, ultimately leading to death .. Since the disease is different for each individual, predicting how it will affect the person is difficult. AD develops for an unknown and variable amount of time before becoming fully apparent, and it can progress undiagnosed for years. On average, the life expectancy following diagnosis is approximately seven years .. Fewer than three percent of individuals live more than fourteen years after diagnosis ..

The cause and progression of Alzheimer's disease are not well understood. Research indicates that the disease is associated with plaques and tangles in the brain .. Current treatments only help with the symptoms of the disease. There are no available treatments that stop or reverse the progression of the disease .. As of 2012, more than 1000 clinical trials have been or are being conducted to find ways to treat the disease, but it is unknown if any of the tested treatments will work .. Mental stimulation, exercise, and a balanced diet have been suggested as ways to delay cognitive symptoms (though not brain pathology) in healthy older individuals, but there is no conclusive evidence supporting an effect ..

Because AD cannot be cured and is degenerative, the sufferer relies on others for assistance. The role of the main caregiver is often taken by the spouse or a close relative .. Alzheimer's disease is known for placing a great burden on caregivers; the pressures can be wide-ranging, involving social, psychological, physical, and economic elements of the caregiver's life .. In developed countries, AD is one of the most costly diseases to society ..
