Sporadic Alzheimer s Disease
Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease is a form of progressive dementia that affects older adults. It is caused by the gradual deterioration of brain cells which leads to changes in thinking and behavior, and gradual loss of memory. Symptoms usually appear in people aged 65 or older and include memory loss, confusion, personality changes, difficulty in daily activities, and difficulty communicating. Treatment is focused on managing symptoms and helping patients and families cope with the disease. With early diagnosis and proper management, the progression of the disease can be slowed, and quality of life can be improved. Sporadic Alzheimer's Disease is one of the most common forms of dementia affecting older adults, and its prevalence is expected to increase as people live longer.
