Alzheimer's disease - the dementia. Recently there have been some important breaks through to possible treatments of Alzheimer's-type dementia. Alzheimer's disease remains the greatest scourge of the elderly after heart disease and stroke. Despite the possibilities of effective treatments for Alzheimer's disease in the forseeable future, this glimmer of hope comes too late for millions of people throughout the world. For them, their prime need is and will remain their quality of care. Nursing Homes are over-burdened with dementia sufferers, particularly those with Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimers disease is now known to be a group of dementias and not just one single disorder Some nursing homes are still not properly equipped or trained to deal with the special needs of people with Alzheimer's disease. There is still too much ignorance of what Alzheimer's disease IS, and ignorance breeds fear and prejudice. Alzheimer Updates Home Page Click here to check all Angell Productions services!

SO Acta Psychiatr Scand 1994 Jan;89(1):1-7 AB 14 elderly inpatients with dementia showing sleep and behaviour disorders and 10 control elderly people were carefully observed for 2 months. 4 weeks of morning light therapy markedly improved sleep and behaviour disorders in the dementia group and significantly increased total and nocturnal sleep time and significantly decreased daytime sleep time. These results indicate that morning bright light is a powerful synchroniser that can normalise disturbed sleep and substantially reduce the frequency of behaviour disorders in elderly people with dementia.

For More Information Introduction Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person's ability to carry out daily activities. The most common form of dementia among older people is Alzheimer's disease (AD), which involves the parts of the brain that control thought, memory, and language. Although scientists are learning more every day, right now they still do not know what causes AD, and there is no cure. Scientists think that as many as 4.5 million Americans suffer from AD. The disease usually begins after age 60, and risk goes up with age. While younger people also may get AD, it is much less common. About 5 percent of men and women ages 65 to 74 have AD, and nearly half of those age 85 and older may have the disease. It is important to note, however, that AD is not a normal part of aging. AD is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer, a German doctor. In 1906, Dr. Alzheimer noticed changes in the brain tissue of a woman who had died of an unusual mental illness. He found abnormal clumps (now called amyloid plaques) and tangled bundles of fibers (now called neurofibrillary tangles). Today, these plaques and tangles in the brain are considered signs of AD.

Fundraising events What is Alzheimer's disease? Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia, affecting around 500,000 people in the UK. This information sheet outlines the symptoms and causes of Alzheimer's disease, and describes what treatments are currently available. Alzheimer's disease, first described by the German neurologist Alois Alzheimer, is a physical disease affecting the brain. During the course of the disease 'plaques' and 'tangles' develop in the structure of the brain, leading to the death of brain cells. We also know that people with Alzheimer's have a shortage of some important chemicals in their brain. These chemicals are involved with the transmission of messages within the brain. Alzheimer's is a progressive disease, which means that gradually, over time, more parts of the brain are damaged. As this happens, the symptoms become more severe. Symptoms People in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease may experience lapses of memory and have problems finding the right words. As the disease progresses they may:

What is Lewy body disease? What is Lewy Body disease ? What are the symptoms ? What diagnostic tests are there ? Is treatment possible ? This sheet tells you about a condition called Lewy body disease which is a cause of dementia very similar to Alzheimer's disease. It differs both in the precise nature of the symptoms and in the damage that is found in the brain after death. There is no cure or treatment specifically for Lewy body disease. However, other drugs may help with some of the symptoms. Lewy body disease is a dementia which is caused by damage in the brain. It is similar to Alzheimer's disease, but symptoms are typically different on close examination, with different signs found in the brain after death. The cause is unknown. Lewy body disease has relatively recently been accepted as a separate disease in its own right. The disease gets its name because of the deposits which are found in the brain after death (named after the doctor who first wrote about them). Lewy bodies are round deposits which contain damaged nerve cells. They are probably formed as the cells try to protect themselves from attack. It is increasingly important to diagnose such conditions accurately as new drugs are developed which may be more effective in some types of dementia than in others.
