A 2005 study has evidenced that a substantial amount of VRS in the substantia innominata, lentiform nucleus, and the caudate nucleus of the basal ganglia may implicate dementia due to arteriosclerotic microvascular disease, in particular Ischemic Vascular Dementia, as opposed dementia due to neurodegenerative disease, specifically Alzheimer ’ s disease and frontotemporal dementia.

Dementia ( taken from Latin, originally meaning " madness ", from de-" without " + ment, the root of mens " mind ") is a serious loss of global cognitive ability in a previously unimpaired person, beyond what might be expected from normal aging.

Dementia is not a single disease, but rather a non-specific illness syndrome ( i. e., set of signs and symptoms ) in which affected areas of cognition may be memory, attention, language, and problem solving.

Dementia, though often treatable to some degree, is usually due to causes that are progressive and incurable as observed in primary progressive aphasia ( PPA ).

Dementia is not merely a problem of memory.

Dementia which begins gradually and worsens progressively over several years is usually caused by neurodegenerative disease ; that is, by conditions affecting only or primarily the neurons of the brain and causing gradual but irreversible loss of function of these cells.

Dementia with Lewy bodies is another fairly common cause, which again may occur alongside either or both of the other causes.

Dementia is much less common under 65 years of age.

Dementia with Lewy bodies ( DLB ), also known under a variety of other names including Lewy body dementia, diffuse Lewy body disease, cortical Lewy body disease, and senile dementia of Lewy type, is a type of dementia closely associated with both Alzheimers and Parkinson's Diseases.

Dementia with Lewy bodies overlaps clinically with Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, but is more associated with the latter.

It is, however, briefly mentioned in the DSM-IV-TR ( published in 2000 ) under Dementia Due to Other General Medical Conditions.

It can be caused by adverse reactions to certain drugs or else during drug withdrawal ; however it is most often associated with the elderly and in those with neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson disease, and other neurodegenerative diseases for example multiple system atrophy and Lewy Body Dementia.

Dementia testing is often done by way of testing the cognitive functions that are most often impaired by the disease e. g. memory, orientation, language and problem solving.

He is also President of mental health charity The Dementia Care Trust.

Sharon is co-convenor of the Parliamentary Friends of Dementia, a parliamentary friendship group that advocates for Australians living with dementia, their families and carers.

* Dementia is predominantly frontal lobe in nature and of the subcortical type of dementia.

Dementia praecox ( a " premature dementia " or " precocious madness ") refers to a chronic, deteriorating psychotic disorder characterized by rapid cognitive disintegration, usually beginning in the late teens or early adulthood.

Dementia with Lewy bodies only started to be diagnosed in the mid-1990s after the discovery of alpha-synuclein staining first highlighted Lewy bodies in the cortex of post-mortem brains of a subset of dementia patients.

Meyer's critical role in reframing Emil Kraepelin's dementia praecox disease concept into a uniquely American psychogenic republic of " reactions " is detailed in Richard Noll, American Madness: The Rise and Fall of Dementia Praecox ( Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2011 ).

Dementia with Lewy bodies ( DLB ), may or may not be part of the PD spectrum, but it is increasingly recognized as the second most common type of neurodegenerative dementia after Alzheimer's disease.
