Absence of functional surrogate decision-makers is a major barrier to research and clinical decision-making for hospitalized patients with advanced dementia.
-
Prevalence of cognitive impairment and dementia appear not to vary widely across the centres examined in this study, which provides stable estimates by age and sex for AGECAT O3 and above, and norms for MMSE.
-
Our data suggest that a single explanation for poststroke dementia is not adequate; rather, multiple factors including stroke features (dysphasia, major dominant stroke syndrome), host characteristics (educational level), and prior cerebrovascular disease each independently contribute to the risk.
-
Global staging measures for dementia of the Alzheimer type (DAT) assess the influence of cognitive loss on the ability to conduct everyday activities and represent the "ultimate test" of efficacy for antidementia drug trials.

The commonly used criteria for diagnosis can differ by a factor of 10 in the number of subjects classified as having dementia.
-
Population studies indicate that subjective memory complaints by elderly people are correlated with cognitive performance.
-
Dementia is one of the commonest and most disabling late-life mental disorders.
-
Risk of dementia by age 80 was more pronounced for Hispanic and black men compared with white men.
-
A study to estimate the prevalence of dementia in a rural population was conducted in a community located on the outskirts of Madras city in South India.
-
Identified population, pro-rating for identifiable non-response, accounted for 78% of EURODEM prevalence.
-

CIND is commonly associated with functional disability and a need for institutional care.
-
Dementia adversely affects driving performance even in its mild stages, although some persons with DAT seem to drive safely for some time after disease onset.
-
Retrospective analysis of clock drawing performance using three published scoring methods (Shulman, Sunderland and Wolf-Klein).
-
The Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) was developed to assess psychopathology in dementia patients.
-
A small feasibility study was performed in Italy to evaluate whether the special care unit (SCU) model could minimize behavioral disturbances in demented patients.
-
In our population, the prevalence of stroke was higher than in previous studies.
-
Stroke patients are more likely to develop dementia than age- and sex-matched controls but the pathogenesis of dementia remains unresolved in most of them.
-
41/100
Degeneration of frontal and temporal lobes predisposes to antisocial behaviour.
-
Two patients with nonfluent progressive aphasia, who have been studied longitudinally, are contrasted with a group of 5 patients with fluent progressive aphasia or semantic dementia.
-
57/100
Prevalence of Alzheimer disease in older Japanese-American men in Hawaii appears to be higher than in Japan but similar to European-ancestry populations.
-
Fronto-temporal dementia is the commonest clinical manifestation of fronto-temporal lobar atrophy.
-
Dementia is an important cause of morbidity in the geriatric population in this community, where families take responsibility for the care of relatives with dementia.
-
In both Alzheimer and vascular dementia subtypes, the prevalence rates did not differ between men and women, but increased with age and were higher in subjects with a low level of education.
-
In the absence of other prior neurologic insult, both AD and other dementias increase the risk of generalized- and partial-onset unprovoked seizures.
-
Education was independently associated with cognitive impairment and dementia among a representative community-based sample of African Americans and the association remains significant across a variety of sensitivity analyses designed to control for measurement and confounding biases.
-
Over the past decade it has become evident that a substantial minority of patients with primary dementing diseases, particularly those presenting in the presenium, have dementia of frontal lobe type (DFT) due to non-Alzheimer's pathology.
-
Interpretation of cognitive test performance among individuals from a given population requires an understanding of cognitive norms in that population.
-
We used the medical records linkage system for the population of Rochester, Minnesota, to identify persons in the community who had their first cerebral infarct without previous dementia.
-
We studied executive function and autobiographical memory in a cohort of 33 DAT patients [divided into minimal (MMSE 24-30) and mild (MMSE 17-23) groups] and in 30 normal controls.
-
Pain is an understudied problem in frail elderly patients, especially those with cognitive impairment, delirium, or dementia.
-
A significant minority of degenerative dementias lack distinctive inclusion bodies, plagues or tangles on pathological examination.
-
Among the elderly, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and multi-infarct dementia, as opposed to depression, increases steeply with age.
-
Based on this study, type and degree of cognitive impairment are better predictors of driving skills than age or medical diagnosis per se.
-
HIV dementia has an annual incidence of 7% after AIDS development and eventually affects 20% of all HIV-infected persons.

The prevalence rate of dementia was low in this Chinese population.
-
We report the neuropathological findings in 32 patients, aged 46-86 years, with dementia lacking distinctive histopathology.
-
Thirty patients with dementia defined by DSM-III-R criteria (Alzheimer's disease (22), vascular dementia (3), Parkinson's disease, frontal lobe dementia, possible diffuse Lewy body dementia, normal pressure hydrocephalus and uncertain diagnosis), with scores below 24 points in the Mini-Mental Status Examination and more than 4 years of education were submitted to a neuropsychological evaluation.
-
We developed a new instrument, the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), to assess 10 behavioral disturbances occurring in dementia patients: delusions, hallucinations, dysphoria, anxiety, agitation/aggression, euphoria, disinhibition, irritability/lability, apathy, and aberrant motor activity.
-
The findings show high rates of new onset dementia, increasing markedly with age, and suggest rapid acceleration of one or more processes that is common in advanced age.
-
These Canadian estimates of the prevalence of dementia fall toward the upper end of the ranges in other studies, whereas the estimates for Alzheimer's disease fall in the middle of the ranges.
-

-
Some SDAT subjects retain "safe" driving skills.
-
Our data support the use of population-based cutpoints over standard cutoff scores, in that the global scale at the conventional cutoff was less sensitive than the battery at the same percentile, and because adequate norms do not exist for tests such as those in the battery.
-
Among 251 patients examined 3 months after the onset of acute ischemic stroke, we diagnosed dementia in 66 (26.3%) by using modified DSM-III-R criteria based on neuropsychological, neurological, functional, and psychiatric examinations.
