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]
In this article, we will explore the ties between hearing loss and tinnitus, looking into how they interplay, understanding diagnosis, effective treatment methods, and vital strategies for prevention.
A RAND Corporation study pinpointed several unexpected predictors at age 60 that will likely lead to dementia later on. Researcher Peter Hudomiet and expert Dr. Marcie Smith discuss the health ...
This isn’t the first time that better sleep has been linked with a lower risk of dementia: A study published in October even found that people with sleep apnea are more likely to develop dementia.
Tinnitus is usually subjective, meaning that the sounds the person hears are not detectable by means currently available to physicians and hearing technicians.
