Alzheimer's Disease: Overview

1.9K
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a continually advancing neurodegenerative disorder, distinguished by escalating memory loss, cognitive dysfunction, and dementia. The disease unfolds in three stages: preclinical, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and dementia. Its onset is insidious, and the progression gradual, with the cause not well explained by other disorders.
The clinical diagnosis of AD hinges on the presence of memory and other cognitive impairments. Biomarkers, such as changes in Aβ...

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Clinical Neurology

Background:

  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive central nervous system disease.
  • MS affects cognitive functions including memory, attention, and processing speed.
  • Prospective memory (PM) failures are frequently reported by MS patients, impacting autonomy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the existing literature on the assessment of prospective memory (PM) deficits in multiple sclerosis (MS).
  • To explore current remediation strategies for PM impairments in MS patients.
  • To identify gaps in research regarding PM assessment and intervention in MS.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature review was conducted using PubMed, PsyINFO, and Google Scholar.
  • Cross-referencing of published articles was employed to identify relevant studies.
  • Focus was placed on studies assessing PM through questionnaires, clinical tests, and experimental procedures.

Main Results:

  • The review confirms the presence of prospective memory deficits in individuals with multiple sclerosis.
  • These deficits are evident even in the early stages of the disease.
  • Current research on PM rehabilitation in MS is limited.

Conclusions:

  • Prospective memory deficits are a significant issue for MS patients.
  • There is a critical need for more controlled studies on PM assessment in MS.
  • Further research into effective PM interventions for MS patients is essential.
