Nearly 44 million people have Alzheimer's or related dementia
worldwide, according to the Alzheimer's Disease International
organization. That number is expected to double every 20 years.
Unlike other books on the market, Alzheimer's Disease:
Understanding Biomarkers, Big Data, and Therapy covers recent
advancements in cognitive, clinical, neural, and therapeutic
aspects of Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. First, readers
are introduced to cognitive and clinical studies, focusing on the
different types of memory impairment, past and future thinking.
This includes the prevalence of depression, its relationship to
other symptoms, and the quality of life for those with Alzheimer's
disease. In addition, the book discusses recent studies on memory
dysfunction in advanced-stage Alzheimer's disease, in comparison to
early-stage, including a chapter on the underlying factors in the
transition from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's diagnosis.
Following this section, the book presents recent studies on the
role of different cortical and subcortical structures in the
development of various symptoms in Alzheimer's disease, as well as
different neural biomarkers underlying the development and
treatment of the disease. In the last section of the book,
therapeutic aspects of Alzheimer's disease, focusing on behavioral
and pharmacological treatments of sleep disorders, memory problems,
and depression, are reviewed. The book aids readers in
understanding the advances in research and care, making it a prime
tool for all clinicians, psychologists, researchers, neurologists,
and caregivers of dementia patients.
