Alzheimer’s is a horrible disease that takes the lives of many. There is someone diagnosed with Alzheimer’s around the world every seventy-two seconds. It is a form of dementia that slowly takes away the most basic of memories all the way to the memories of children, weddings, and even the saddest ones such as family death. The people that Alzheimer’s affects have a hard time with remembering tiny details and the disease begins with taking away the function of short term memory. This happens because the levels of acetylcholine are known to drop up to ninety percent beginning in the entorhinal cortex and moving into the hippocampus. Because of this, of the first signs of Alzheimer’s is the loss or decrease of the sense of smell, hence the entorhinal. The cells in the hippocampus called the hippocampal cells lose their connection and the result of this is the total loss of short-term memory. The neurons resting in the cerebral cortex then start to degenerate which in turn leads to the difficulty with the function of language and judgment. This also causes appetite to decline and then there is the loss of control over bowel movements. The disease will progress with many ending up not even recognizing their own children, much less being able to eat or bath or do simple tasks that they normally would not even have to think about.

In an article written by Antonanzas, Rive, Badenas, Gomez- Lus and Guilhaume (2006), the different style of treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) was found to have implications on research. In the United States and many other developed countries, AD patients are often institutionalized at a certain point of the disease when they are said to cause a burden on their caregivers. In Spain, AD is rarely a disease that institutionalizes a person; they are regularly taken care of by a caregiver in the community till the end. Researchers in Spain found that due to their different views on AD care, much of the research available could not be applied to their country and adaptions to research had to be made. Researchers had their sights set on finding out whether drugs that lowered care costs in countries that institutionalized AD patients would have the same effect in a country that mainly does not (p. 137).
tends to increase with age, but there is a big difference between normal forgetfulness and Alzheimer's disease. There are three things to know about Alzheimer's: the facts and figures, the seven stages, and the changes in the brain.
“I had no idea that someone that young could even get Alzheimer’s. The speed and aggressiveness with which it attacked was something I really didn’t have any context for… My image of it was like, You forgot stuff. But that is really the tip of the iceberg. You forget how to walk and move and talk.” - Seth Rogen

Alzheimer’s disease is a type of dementia that affects cognitive function in the elderly population. The exact cause of the disease is unknown but may include genetic as well as environmental factors. A progression of specific neurological changes allows the progression of the disease. Short-term memory losses along with dementia are typical symptoms of the disease. A definite diagnosis of the disease currently can only be confirmed by an autopsy. The disease progresses in five stages that will vary with every patient. There is no current acceptable treatment to reverse or stop the progression of the disease.
People that are diagnosed with Dementia have an advanced brain disorder that can make it progressively more difficult for them to think clearly, remember things, communicate to others, or even take care of themselves on their own. I have been personally affected by this disorder through members of my family and that is why this particular lecture caught my attention the most. I didn’t realize how serious this disorder can be and how much it not only impacts a person’s memory loss, but many other aspects of their life. The topics that interested me the most and ones I wanted to learn more about were normal aging memory loss versus symptoms of Dementia, how families cope with a loved one with Dementia, and the difference between Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
According to the World Health Organization, nearly 48 million people worldwide suffer from dementia. Each year, eight million new cases are reported. Contrary to popular belief, dementia is not a disease itself or exclusive to the elderly; rather, it is a term used for a variety of symptoms and can affect people as early as in their 40s and 50s. In this article, we’ll discuss the different causes of dementia and three popular forms of dementia medication that have shown positive results in managing the conditions associated with the condition.
“Every 66 seconds, someone in the United States develops Alzheimer's disease.” Alzheimer’s is a serious disorder that affects many elderly people, especially in today's society. This disease results in the loss of memory, intellectual abilities, and overall performance. Alzheimer’s disease is progressive, and it gets worse over time. This disorder has no cure yet, but there are a couple of medications that are accessible. Research for the cure still continues as an increasing amount of the older population are diagnosed with this disorder. To this day, researchers are trying to discover new methods to cure this disease.
