Affecting memory, thinking, and behaviour, mostly, Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological illness. Leading to a slow drop in cognitive ability, it is the most often occurring cause of dementia. The condition is associated with abnormal protein accumulation in the brain, including beta-amyloid plaques and tau tangles, which interfere with nerve cell transmission and lead to cell death. Its development may be influenced by ageing and lifestyle decisions like unhealthy food and lack of exercise, as well as by genetic elements.
Early Alzheimer's symptoms include disorientation, poor word finding, and modest memory loss. Patients with the illness suffer from extreme memory loss, confusion, mood swings, trouble identifying loved ones, and loss of independence as it gets worse. Later on, people could have difficulty with simple daily tasks such as dressing and eating.
Though a cure is not possible, treatment focusses on symptom management and slowing down progression. Medications briefly increase cognitive ability, including NMDA receptor antagonists and cholinesterase inhibitors. Maintaining quality of life depends critically on lifestyle changes, cognitive therapy, and carer support as well as other factors.
New medicines, including immunotherapy and stem cell therapies, are under constant investigation, giving optimism for next developments in Alzheimer's care. Early diagnosis and thorough treatment can enable people with a sickness to live with dignity
