After getting Alzheimer's disease, it is equivalent to suffering from "terminal illness"?

Each September 21 is the World of Alzheimer's Disease Day, and Alzheimer's disease is also often referred to as Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease often finds people at the age of 30 to 60. But in most cases, this disease often appears among the elderly after the age of 65. Even more terrible is that the average life expectancy after diagnosis of Alzheimer is usually 8 to 10 years.

In 2019, about 50 million patients with Alzheimer in the world will have language barriers after they get sick. Unusual fluctuations, even unable to take care of themselves, and gradually lose physical function. When our grandparents have the above symptoms, we must be alert to whether our grandparents have suffered from this disease.

1. The cause of Alzheimer's disease?

No one can say the cause of its onset. Our memory is to determine whether it is valuable through the hippocampus and keep them in the cerebral cortex.

The current research progress only knows that the brain has abnormal cell structure, which will kill normal brain cells.

The atrophy of other areas of the brain will cause patients with Alzheimer's disease to lose their ability to judge whether their memory is important. The connection between nerve cells in brain tissue gradually decreases, and it will forget the important people and things. Remember that what happened a few days ago or a few hours ago is not difficult for us, but it is really difficult to do for patients.

It is worth noting that Alzheimer's disease is not an inevitable result in the process of human aging, but a chronic disease that slowly progress. It is necessary to go to a regular hospital for screening in time.

2. What are the daily care of Alzheimer's disease?

When Alzheimer's disease was discovered in the early days, measures such as drug treatment, controlling blood pressure, and adjusting diet habits in time will become slow. Make a psychological preparation for subsequent treatment plans.

In order to facilitate the post -memory memory of the patient, the items can be placed in some fixed parts, and the daily list or the schedule can be used for daily task planning to reduce the number of mirrors. In the later period, patients with Alzheimer may not be able to recognize that they may be confused or afraid of themselves, maintain convenience for patients, and help patients with Alzheimer's dignity. We should do what we should do as children.

Of course, patients themselves can also make advance plans for their future. For example, in order to prevent patients' ability to lose their autonomy in the later stage of the disease, they cannot make accurate judgments. They can choose to plan their own property distribution, nursing plan, treatment plan, and so on in advance.

Elderly people who are easily stared at by Alzheimer are those who do not like sports, do not love social high, and smoke and drink. If you read newspapers, make friends, sing and dance, play mahjong, etc. every day, the elderly who are rich in life will not be easily stated. Therefore, regular exercise and social activities can not only prevent diseases, but also strengthen physical fitness and promote sleep, and help patients retain certain abilities.

In addition, the Mediterranean diet eats a lot of olive oil, beans, grains, appropriate amounts of vegetables, dairy products, and eat very little food habits. It is not easy for people to get Alzheimer's disease. So the appropriate diet structure is also very important.

It is reported that sufficient sleep and reasonable diet exercise, good mentality, mental work, and social exchanges can help prevent Alzheimer's disease.

Third, research progress on "Alzheimer's Disease"

Recently, research on Alzheimer's disease mainly focused on "how to test Alzheimer's disease earlier? Let patients get earlier diagnosis and treatment." Among them Changes have high value.

Professor of the Capital Medical University revealed for the first time revealing that blood neuroplasma dense alpine protein can be used as an asymptomatic Alzheimer's biomarker, and the detection of tunnels of blood neuropathy is simple and easy to operate. For Alzheimer Early diagnosis and prevention of symptoms are of great significance. In addition, scientists have also studied special targets for Alzheimer's disease treatment, hoping that more treatment targets can emerge through biomarkers.

Related research is currently underway. It is regrettable that although there are so many cutting -edge studies, Alzheimer's disease is still a clinical disease without medicine. We sincerely look forward to the future of technology. It will be cured.
