Alzheimer disease is a progressive, irreversible neurodegenerative disorder and the most common form of dementia, characterised by deterioration of memory, reasoning, language, and behaviour, predominantly affecting older adults. Its pathology centres on amyloid-beta plaques, neurofibrillary tangles of hyperphosphorylated tau, synaptic and neuronal loss, and medial temporal and cortical atrophy, with risk influenced by genetic, vascular, metabolic, and lifestyle factors. Although no curative treatment exists, early diagnosis and intervention can support quality of life, driving research into biomarkers, imaging, therapeutic targets, and non-pharmacological care. The research collected here reflects this scope through studies of assistive technology and cognitive-behavioural programmes for adaptive skills, non-pharmacological interventions for disrupted sleep in moderate-to-severe dementia, early prediction using optical coherence tomography imaging, caregiver knowledge gaps and misconceptions, vagus nerve stimulation as a potential treatment, circular RNAs in Alzheimer's disease, and the relationship between cortisol, depression, and medial temporal lobe atrophy in mild cognitive impairment. Further work addresses aggression and agitation in dementia and bioinformatics in disease diagnosis. Together they span detection, molecular mechanisms, therapy, behavioural management, and caregiving. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research on the mechanisms, diagnosis, treatment, and care of Alzheimer disease and related dementias.
