The onset of directed attention fatigue can be triggered by a number of activities involving the use of the brain's inhibitory system. Activities that engage this system include multitasking, [ 7 ] working in an environment with disruptive background noise, [ citation needed ] a lack of sleep, [ 8 ] and rapidly changing focus during a prolonged ...
An estimated 70,800 people in the UK are living with young onset dementia, where symptoms begin before the age of 65 ... fatigue, mood changes, anxiety, stress, brain fog, vaginal dryness and more ...
“Alzheimer’s disease has a long pre-symptomatic period; Alzheimer’s-related changes take place in the brain 10, 15, even 20 years before the onset of memory and thinking symptoms.
Furthermore, the association between low socioeconomic status and the development of dementia is also more pronounced in early onset dementia compared to late onset dementia. [13] Additionally, depending on the etiology of early onset dementia, family history may be a significant risk factor, especially for Alzheimer's early onset dementia. [9]
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is an early onset disorder that mostly occurs between the ages of 45 and 65, [13] but can begin earlier, and in 20–25% of cases onset is later. [11] [14] Men and women appear to be equally affected. [15] It is the most common early presenting dementia. [16]
Most cases of early-onset Alzheimer's share the same traits as the "late-onset" form and are not caused by known genetic mutations. Little is understood about how it starts. Nonfamilial early-onset AD can develop in people who are in their 30s or 40s, but this is extremely rare, [3] and mostly people in their 50s or early 60s are affected.
Fatigue is a state of tiredness (which is not sleepiness), exhaustion [1] or loss of energy. [2] [3]Fatigue (in the medical sense) is sometimes associated with medical conditions including autoimmune disease, organ failure, chronic pain conditions, mood disorders, heart disease, infectious diseases, and post-infectious-disease states.

“Limbic” is related to the brain areas first involved, “age-related” and the name “LATE” itself refer to the onset of disease usually in persons aged 80 or older. “TDP-43” indicates the aberrant mis-folded protein (or proteinopathy) deposits in the brain that characterize LATE, and “encephalopathy” means illness of brain.
