HIV Dementia Epidemic in Uganda
2008-05-20 14:00:00 A recently released study has showen that 465,000 HIV-positive people in Uganda are experiencing symptoms of dementia, including memory loss, learning problems and behavioural disabilities. The researchers found that dementia symptoms were more prevalent in older adults.“If the rate we saw in our study translates across sub-Saharan Africa, then we are looking at more than eight million people in this region with HIV dementia,” said Ned Sacktor of the US-based John Hopkins University, who led the study. These findings pose yet another challenge to a country that is already overwhelmed by the health challenges posed by the AIDS epidemic. The researchers tested 78 HIV-positive people attending a clinic in Kampala, Uganda and compared the results with a control group 100 HIV-negative subjects. HIV dementia is treatable and potentially reversible although anti-retroviral medication is largely unavailable in many Third World countries. Sacktor hopes studies like his will highlight the...

Early Dementia Often Caused by Autoimmune Disorders
2008-04-16 18:35:00 Dementia in patients who are younger than 45 years of age is often caused by degenerative, metabolic or autoimmune diseases, Dr. Brendan Kelley, of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, told attendees at the 60th annual meeting of the American Academy of Neurology, being held this week in Chicago.Kelley and colleagues searched the Mayo Clinic database for patients who began to develop dementia between 17 and 45 years that was not related to trauma, brain infections or mental retardation. They identified 235 such patients receiving care between 1996 and 2006. The average age at dementia onset was 34.7 years.Neurodegenerative causes accounted for dementia in 29.8 percent of the group, frontotemporal dementia occurred in 13.2 percent and Alzheimer's disease was seen in less than 1 percent," data presented by Kelley showed.Autoimmune-inflammatory- causes, including multiple sclerosis, accounted for 21.2 percent. Inborn errors of metabolism were identified in 10.6 percent.At the last ...

Over the years, a shift in law enforcement priorities, as well as an increase in general awareness, has made most officers familiar with the concepts of spousal abuse and child abuse. Still, the term elder abuse raises questions among even the most seasoned law enforcement officers. From physical, emotional, or sexual abuse to financial exploitation, approximately 818,000 elderly individuals are victimized annually.Furthermore, experts estimate that only 1 in 10 cases of elder abuse gets reported.(1) Many elderly citizens must contend with a variety of health problems that limit their physical or mental functioning. Some become bedridden and cut off from normal contact with the rest of the world. At the same time, mental limitations leave many older citizens highly vulnerable to various forms of abuse.In Tennesse...

HIV patients in India do not get dementia, says Bangalore scientist
2008-02-01 11:27:00 Studies conducted by Dr. Ranga Uday Kumar, a scientist from Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), here have revealed that HIV patients in India do not suffer from dementia due to genetics. The observations made by Uday Kumar and his team will soon be published in reputed international medical and research journals. In an exclusive interview to Asian News International on Monday, Dr Kumar said that the HIV viruses are classified into various sub-types. The virus found in Indians is of sub-type C. "We, for the first time, demonstrated a very important difference in one of the viral proteins in sub-type C and we have proposed that this is the one which is leading to different clinical manifestation, so that is important in this work. So after our publication it's not that everybody started believing us but many people understood that now they can't dismiss subtype differences, there are strong circumstantial evidenc...

Mental, physical activity delays dementia in Huntington's disease
2008-01-25 13:03:00 Researchers at Melbourne’s Howard Florey Institute have found that increased medical and physical activity can delay the inception of dementia in Huntington's disease thus opening up the possibility of new treatments. The study led by Dr Jess Nithianantharajah and Dr Anthony Hannan was conducted over genetically engineered mice with the Huntington’s disease displaying learning and memory impairments at early stages. The findings revealed mice performed better on the memory tests when exposed to enriched environment enhancing mental and physical stimulation. “This discovery is quite remarkable because we have shown that an enriched environment not only delayed the onset of dementia, but it also slowed the progression of memory loss in these mice,” said Dr Nithianantharajah. “We also showed that in the Huntington’s disease mice, specific molecular changes occur that relate to communication between brain cells (synapses)...

Indian HIV Patients are spared from Dementia
2008-01-25 12:40:00 Indian HIV patients are said to live a better life compared to their US counterparts. Recent studies conducted by the Indian scientists from Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR) at Bangalore and National Brain Research Centre (NBRC), at Delhi, have shown that HIV does not cause dementia in India due to genetic change. “The HIV virus are classified into various sub type and virus found in Indians are Subtype C, which is not prone to dementia because the protein Tat that effects the brain cell undergoes a genetic change in India resulting in lack of dementia,” said Dr.Ranga Uday Kumar, team leader of study at JNCASR. He further added that with the difference in subtype, the main purpose of the study was to find out whether there are similar differences between the pathogens, but due to absence of animal model for experimentation in India we had to depend solely on the cell culture to solve the mystery. And Dr. Pankaj...

Close Legal Loopholes on Persuasion

We don't buy it either.Brock flew Norman Roussey to New York to be evaluated by a psychiatrist - who happened to be his sister. She wrote a letter stating that Roussey had the mental capacity to change his will and leave everything to her brother.He took a hypnotist to Roussey's house to perform "relaxation techniques" on the senior - prior to having him sign the new will, a will that Roussey later didn't even remember signing.Roussey's self-professed close friend also convinced him to take out a mortgage on his late mother's house and give him $175,000 of the money. When Brock failed to make the mortgage payments like he'd promised, the bank foreclosed. Roussey lost his mother's house and wound up living in an apartment.T...

Difference between Dementia and Alzheimer's Disease
2007-12-21 20:14:00 Alzheimer's disease was first identified by a German Neurologist Dr. Alois Alzheimer in year 1906. It is characterized by progressive mental deterioration to such a degree that it interferes with one's ability to function socially and at work. Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible, progressive disorder. The precise cause is unknown. It is now known as degenerative disorder that is characterized by aspecific set of physiological changes in the brain. Nerve fibers surrounding the hippo campus, the brain memory center, become tangled, and information is no longer carried properly to or from the brain. New memories cannot be formed and memories formed earlier cannot be retrieved.Other disorders can cause symptoms similar to those of Alzheimer's disease like dementia, signs of alcohol abuse, advanced syphilis, brain tumor, hypothyroidism and presence of small blood clots in vessels that supply the brain. Dementia may result from arteriosclerosis ( hardening of the arteries)that slow...

Microsoft's SenseCam helps dementia patients with recent memories
2007-12-12 07:26:00 A research group run by Microsoft in Cambridge, England, has developed a digital camera called the SenseCam for Alzheimer's and dementia patients. It hangs around the patient's neck and takes wide-angle lens pictures that capture most of what the patient is able to see. The camera has light and heat sensors that prompt it to take pictures as the user's surroundings change throughout the day. Alternatively, the camera can be set to take pictures every thirty seconds that can be turned into short movies that remind patients what happened over the course of any specific day. The results for patients using the cameras have been pretty astonishing so far: one woman who could only remember 2% of events from any given week could recall 80% of major events that occurred over a six week period when she reviewed the SenseCam's images for an hour every two days. You don't have to have a neurological disorder to want to remember what you were doing two weeks, two months, or two years ag...

Three Diet Habits May Reduce Risk of Dementia
2007-11-14 00:21:00 The results of a four year French study of 8,000 people over the age of 65 in Bordeaux, Dijon, and Montpelier show that three dietary habits may lower a person's risk of dementia. Fish People who ate fish at least once per week had a 35 percent lower risk of dementia than those who didn't eat fish. People without the ApoE Alzheimer's gene who ate fish once per week reduced their risk of Alzheimer's disease by 40 percent. Fruits and Vegetables Those who included fruits and vegetables in their daily diets had a 30 percent lower risk of developing dementia. Fats Consumption of healthy fats that contained omega-3 fatty acids such as walnut oil, flaxseed oil and canola oil lowered the risk of dementia by 60 percent. Those whose diets contained more omega-6 fats (such as sunflower oil) than omega-3 fats doubled their risk of dementia. The study's author, Dr. Pascale Barberger-Gateau, said: "While we?ve identified dietary patterns associated with lowering a person?s risk of...

Dementia Screenings Pay Off in Early Detection and Treatment
2007-11-07 01:01:00 The early stages of dementia are usually not recognized early enough. An early diagnosis could lead to positive intervention and early treatment. Experts at the Alzheimer's Foundation of America (AFA) are recommending have more widespread use of memory screenings. Memory screenings are cheap and effective Physicians need to use them more. It is estimated, that physicians miss at least half of the cases of mild and moderate dementia, only recognizing it when the brain disorder is at least moderately advanced. Early diagnosis benefits, include treatments and lifestyle choices, such as proper nutrition and mental stimulation According to a survey of participants in the AFA 2006 National Memory Screening Day, 73% had memory concerns, but fewer than 10% had discussed those conserns with their physician. Clearly, Americans need to consider their brain health as they age. Over 2,000 sites in 46 states offer confidential memory screenings, including all of Kmart's 1,100 pharmacies nat...

He says in a number of places how much he loved Eddie and what dear friends they were. He also says at one point that, 'I will be with you soon,' so it appears as though he was having some thoughts about his own mortality," said Carry Ichter, Benoit's father's attorney...More?source: wsbtv.com

Wrestler's Brain Showed Signs of Dementia
2007-09-06 14:00:00 An examination of the brain of wrestler Chris Benoit revealed evidence of extensive neurological damage at the time of his death. Benoit, a well-known professional wrestler, killed himself in June of this year after murdering his wife and child. At the request of Benoit's father, Dr, Julian Bailes, head of neurosurgery at a top American university, examined the brain and concluded that the extensive damage resembled what would be found in "an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient's brain". Stating on American TV that the damage was "striking and maybe shocking", Dr. Bailes added that "we think we have great anatomical damage here from previous trauma. Whether it had a psychiatric or behavioral expression, we certainly think that's most likely." While the most likely cause of the damage is from the numerous concussions that Benoit sustained during his wrestling career in Japan and America, he was also known to be a heavy steroid us...
