MedlinePlus: Dementia is a word for a group of symptoms caused by disorders that affect the brain. it is not a specific disease. people with dementia may not be able to think well enough to do normal activities, such as getting dressed or eating. they may lose their ability to solve problems or control their emotions. their personalities may change. they may become agitated or see things that are not there.
memory loss is a common symptom of dementia. however, memory loss by itself does not mean you have dementia. people with dementia have serious problems with two or more brain functions, such as memory and language.
many different diseases can cause dementia, including alzheimer's disease and stroke. drugs are available to treat some of these diseases. while these drugs cannot cure dementia or repair brain damage, they may improve symptoms or slow down the disease.

MalaCards: Dementia is related to neuronitis and cerebritis. An important gene associated with Dementia is ITM2B (integral membrane protein 2B), and among its related pathways are Neuroscience and Metabolic pathways. The drugs citalopram hydrobromide and citalopram and the compounds calcium and cholesterol have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, cortex and spinal cord, and related mouse phenotypes are nervous system and cardiovascular system. Disease Ontology: A cognitive disorder resulting from a loss of brain function affecting memory, thinking, language, judgement and behavior.6 NINDS: Dementia is not a specific disease. It is a descriptive term for a collection of symptoms that can be caused by a number of disorders that affect the brain. People with dementia have significantly impaired intellectual functioning that interferes with normal activities and relationships. They also lose their ability to solve problems and maintain emotional control, and they may experience personality changes and behavioral problems, such as agitation, delusions, and hallucinations. While memory loss is a common symptom of dementia, memory loss by itself does not mean that a person has dementia. Doctors diagnose dementia only if two or more brain functions - such as memory and language skills -- are significantly impaired without loss of consciousness.31 Wikipedia: Dementia (taken from Latin) originally meaning madness, from de- (without) + ment, the root of mens...44 more... |
