Alzheimer’s disease today then
alzheimer’s disease is a neurological
Degenerative which basically affects
cognitive functions of the brain
person who develops it
killed the neural cells and causing
that the person loses the ability to
communicating well the complexity of a
environment and recent memory loss
We do not know exactly why.
by which she gets more involved
knows very well the consequences of what
then it happens inside the brain
a person who developed this disease
we can perceive several factors
among them the accumulation of one of two
a so-called tau protein that ends up
enter the neurons and forming the
neurofibrillary and another by the accumulation of
beta- amyloid protein plaques that
has somehow killed the neuron
thereby preventing decrease the volume
cerebral
so here we can compare a
brain and brain with Alzheimer’s
we may well see that the volume
of the mass had to decrease a lot and
that the hippocampus area it is
severely affected area of the
who does not know is who would be responsible
for stored weapons memories
then the discovery of alzheimer’s occurred
when a German psychiatrist resolved
doing crops from a woman’s brain
who had presented the symptoms
should lose recent and everything else
during the last three years of life
so he put in the microscope the
fragments of the brain and he noticed
that the neurons in this region were
very loaded of these two proteins
that I mentioned earlier
so he saw that things were
many things happening there in that
place and what is happening in a
wrong
That’s how he discovered the good online I
I will cite the symptoms studied design
it is divided into four types of
initial stage that presents loss of
memory and personality change.
person forgets the places and words
known in the second stage presents
season in insomnia and difficulty in
communicate
besides having difficulty in
concentration in the third stage
is known as severe as
important to identify Alzheimer’s disease
it is difficult to eat and
fecal or urinary incontinence
difficulty performing tasks
and forgetting facts
and something important that happened
in life and in addition it has a
for example the person who
talked a lot with the neighbors and now
it is not isolated in the conversation anymore and that’s it
and moreover it is a very sad part is
that the person no longer remembers the entities
and the face of what those who did
are the people and in the fourth stage
person totally loses the movements and
can no longer move without a
help from a family member or even from a
nurse
the muscles because of it do not
able to move around and brought him
atrophy and the reflexes I get to 2
swallowing and she loses
totally the conscience and attitude
then as explained above to
people do not have information yet
sufficient to determine the cause
specific, but we know that the
a multifactorial disease
so many things need to happen
within the body so that it
develop
some factors make it easier for you to
disease, for example, has a
specific chromosome that can be given
Genetically your brain does not
perform a cleaning of these proteins
so effectively and have a
greater ease of having information
or something like brain mass
good how the treatment is performed as
You know Alzheimer’s has no cure.
then the medicines they give are
only to inhibit the symptoms and try
improve the patient’s quality of life
and family too
in addition to attempting to delay the maximum
disease progression
there is one of the most recent studies
are showing good results
significant is the use of drugs and
which is a cannabinoid from the
case of cannabis that has been showing
can somehow inhibit the
accumulation of protein around the
neurons and manages to improve
symptoms can alleviate a lot of them is
very controversial it is very complicated to speak
about why not a substance
totally legalized and many people
confuse the substance with the use of
damn it
but if there was more investment in a
in-depth study of this might
have a great chance for people
that they have today or people who in the future
are likely to develop this disease
a curiosity is that the government
he invests 15 billion dollars in
in the influence of cancer to
studies and in the dose it only invests 5
million and compared to the rate of
Alzheimer’s and it’s cancer that has well
more investment
so maybe we do not have
still how to cure is Alzheimer’s and
I think we should invest
more because it really affects many
people
