Alzheimer's Disease is a progressive neurological disorder that primarily affects cognitive functions such as memory, thinking, and behavior. The disease is characterized by the accumulation of abnormal protein deposits in the brain, leading to the death of nerve cells and the shrinkage of brain tissue. Symptoms typically begin with mild memory loss and confusion, eventually progressing to severe impairment in language, reasoning, and other mental functions. As the disease advances, individuals may experience personality changes, mood swings, and difficulty performing daily tasks. While there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's Disease, treatment strategies focus on managing symptoms and slowing progression. Current approaches include medications like cholinesterase inhibitors and NMDA receptor antagonist to enhance cognitive function. Emerging therapies target amyloid-beta plaques and tau tangles, aiming to modify the disease process. Lifestyle interventions, such as cognitive training, exercise, and a balanced diet, support brain health. Additionally, supportive care and interventions for behavioral symptoms improve quality of life. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of Alzheimer's Disease. It aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of this disease and the recent researches in this field. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with the study of this condition will benefit alike from this book.
