    Sammanfattning : Dementia is a state of permanent loss of cognitive function, most commonly affecting the elderly. With a rapidly growing aged population, the spectrum of disorders that lead to dementia is exerting an ever-increasing toll on patients, families and society alike. The most common dementing disorders are Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Revealing the complex nature of amyloid beta and its relation to dementia

    Författare :Eleni Gkanatsiou; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s Disease; Amyloid beta; Mass spectrometry; Cerebral amyloid angiopathy; Down Syndrome; Pathological ageing; Dementia with Lewy bodies; Parkinson s disease dementia; dementia;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and characterized by the accumulation of amyloid plaques in the extracellular space of the brain parenchyma. Amyloid plaques consist of amyloid beta peptides (Aβ). Amyloid pathology can also be involved in other types of dementia, either as a driving force or as a coexisting pathology. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Microangiopathies of the human brain b immunohistochemical studies on extracellular matrix components in arterial vessels and endothelin

    Sammanfattning : Microangiopathies may cause ischemic brain lesions and are of fundamental importance in vascular dementia. Risk factors include high age, hypertension, diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Amyloid Maturation Patterns in Alzheimer's Disease - Novel chemical imaging of Aβ and Tau pathology

    Författare :Srinivas Koutarapu; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) accounts for approximately 70% of dementia cases in Sweden. It can be of genetic origin i.e. familial form (fAD), sporadic form (sAD). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Microvascular disease in cognitive impairment

    Författare :Mana Shams; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cerebral small vessel disease has been recognized as the greatest vascular contributor to dementia. Previously, small vessel disease was thought to be part of normal aging. LÄS MER
