Alzheimer's disease and nursing. New scientific and clinical insights

This article aimed to provide an orientation to major new insights in the causes, pathogenesis, and management of AD. This article certainly does not offer a comprehensive overview, and this was not the intent. Instead, the aim was to provide an orientation to the major issues in the complex debate over "causes and cures," and to so serve as a foundation for further study as well as platform for this issue of Nursing Clinics of North America on AD.
