Alzheimer's disease (ad),
is the most common type of Alzheimer's disease.
At present,
the incidence rate of
Alzheimer's disease among people over 65 years old in my country is 5.6%, and the incidence rate among
people over 85 years old is as high as 40%.
How to identify the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease early? Professor Chen Xiaochun, chief physician of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University, said there are three main symptoms to identify.
1. Amnesia
The earliest symptom of Alzheimer's disease is usually amnesia. "Recent event amnesia" (that is, the inability to recall and reproduce recent events) is its characteristic symptom, mainly manifesting as episodic memory impairment. For example, I attended a wedding yesterday, but I can’t remember who I sat with or what I ate.
2, Suspicion
Clinically, patients often suspect that their spouses are having an affair, or that their children are stealing things. If the mental and behavioral symptoms worsen further, the patients will have hallucinations, delusions, aimless wandering or loss, day and night sleep reversal, and other behaviors, and even agitation, Disinhibition, aggressive behavior.
3. Apathy or irritability
Patients will undergo personality changes, such as becoming irritable and irritable. Some patients have reduced interest in the surrounding environment, are indifferent to the people around them, and are even indifferent to their loved ones.
In addition, there are some things that you can usually handle but suddenly become incapable of doing so, such as newly purchased home appliances that you would use before but cannot use now... If you find that the elderly at home are in this situation, don't treat them as " Old fool". You must go to a professional hospital in time and find a specialist to evaluate cognitive function. If there is cognitive impairment, further examinations should be performed, such as peripheral blood tests, imaging (structural imaging and molecular functional imaging) examinations, cerebrospinal fluid examinations, etc. .
Professor Ye Qinyong, chief physician of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University, said that in recent years, there have been more and more studies on the treatment of AD, but the treatment of AD is still difficult.
This newspaper previously reported that
Lencanezumab, as the world's first new AD drug to be fully approved by the FDA in the past 20 years,
has been approved for nationwide marketing
It has brought great benefits to Alzheimer's disease patients
and their families. A glimmer of hope.
On July 1 this year, lencanezumab was prescribed for the first time in Fujian at the Union Hospital Affiliated to Fujian Medical University. The first patient diagnosed with early-stage AD in this hospital will receive 18 months of treatment with lencanezumab infused twice a month. (See the report for details: is a big deal!
