  Dementia is the progressive decline in mental function because of damage or illness in the brain beyond what could be expected from normal aging. Particularly affected areas may be memory, attention, language and problem solving, although especially in the later stages of the situation, affected people may be disoriented with time, not knowing what day, week, month or year it is, not knowing where they are not knowing who they are. Outward indications of dementia could be classified as either reversible or irreversible depending upon the etiology of the illness. Significantly less than a huge number of all dementias are reversible. Dementia is many disease processes that are encompassed by a non-specific term, in the same way temperature is due to many etiologies. dark circles under eyes discussions
  
  Early apparent symptoms of dementia usually consist in changes in personality, or in behavior. Usually dementia may be first apparent throughout a bout of delirium. There is a greater frequency of eventually developing dementia in individuals who experience an acute bout of distress while hospitalized. close remove frame
  
  Dementia make a difference language, comprehension, motor abilities, short-term memory, ability to identify commonly used items, reaction time, personality traits, and executive functioning. Even without signs of general intellectual decline, delusions are normal in dementia (15-56% incidence rate in Alzheimer's type, and 27-60% incidence rate in multi-infarct dementia). Often these delusions simply take the form of monothematic delusions, like reflected self-misidentification.
  
  Seniors can also react with dementia-like signs to surgery, infections, sleep starvation, abnormal food intake, dehydration, isolation, change in home or personal crises. This is called delirium, and many if not most dementia patients also provide a delirium along with the physiologial dementia, adding to the outward symptoms. When treated with tender care, increased food and sleeping habits the delirium can disappear completely or greatly improve, but this doesn't affect the modifications in mental performance. Affected individuals may also show signs of psychosis or depression. It is important to be able to differentiate between dementia and delirium. taste
  
  Appropriate differential diagnosis between the forms of dementia will need, at least, referral to an expert, e.g. a internist, geriatric psychiatrist or neurologist. Nevertheless, there are several short 5-15 second tests which have good stability and can be used at the office or other environment to judge cognitive status.
  
  Aside from the treatable types outlined above, there's no cure to this infection, although scientists are growing in making a kind of medicine that may decrease the method.
