Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia

Dementia is an overarching term for a collection of symptoms that impair memory, daily functioning, communication, and cognition. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration leading to memory loss, language difficulties, and cognitive decline.
 
While dementia can affect individuals at different ages, the risk markedly increases with age, though neither dementia nor Alzheimer’s is considered a normal consequence of aging. Distinguishing between various dementias and Alzheimer’s disease is crucial for effective management.
 
Dementia is better understood as a syndrome a set of symptoms without a single definitive diagnosis. It involves impairments in multiple cognitive domains such as memory, reasoning, and executive function. Alzheimer’s disease, a progressive brain disorder, results in gradual cognitive deterioration and loss of independence. The exact causes remain elusive, and at present, there is no cure for Alzheimer’s, though treatments are available to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
 
This session will explore advances in understanding the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of Alzheimer’s and other dementias. It will highlight ongoing research into biomarkers, therapeutic interventions, and supportive care approaches aimed at improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
