A new study found the biggest risk factors and predictors at 60 for dementia at 80. Neurologists weigh in on the research and share ways to prevent dementia.
Excess capsaicin can cause drooling as well, an example being the ingestion of particularly high Scoville Unit chili peppers. Some neurological problems cause drooling. Medication can cause drooling, either due to primary action or side-effects; for example the pain-relief medication Orajel can numb the mucosa. [citation needed] Causes include:
ARIA-E refers to cerebral edema, involving the breakdown of the tight endothelial junctions of the blood-brain barrier and subsequent accumulation of fluid. [3] In a double-blind trial of the humanised monoclonal antibody solanezumab (n = 2042), sixteen patients (11 taking the drug, 5 taking a placebo), or 0.78% developed ARIA-E.
Recent research is looking at the way in which cardiovascular issue may play into the development of dementia, with one study suggesting that heparin, a common anticoagulant, may help delay ...
Dementia prevention is a critical area of research, as experts want to understand what people can do to decrease dementia risk. A recent study found that more than 5 years of taking medications ...
LATE is a term that describes a prevalent medical condition with impaired memory and thinking in advanced age, often culminating in the dementia clinical syndrome. [1] In other words, the symptoms of LATE are similar to those of Alzheimer's disease. The acronym LATE stands for Limbic-predominant Age-related TDP-43 Encephalopathy.
