    Extractions: PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. This is a syndrome where the patient has multiple cognitive deficits and memory loss (enough to impair occupational or social functioning); with either associated deterioration in language (aphasia), perception and comprehension (apraxia); impaired ability to recognise objects (agnosia); and/or a disturbance in executive functioning (inability to think abstractly and plan, initiate, sequence, monitor and stop complex behaviour). Deterioration must represent a progressive decline from a previous higher level of functioning, and consciousness should not be clouded (cf acute confusional state, delirium). Memory loss is typically for recent events and long-term memory can be remarkably intact. Acute confusional state is of recent onset and usually has a reversible cause. Dementia is more chronic and usually untreatable. The onset may be less acute than at first apparent as the patient manages to cover the deficiency by making notes or bluff but when compensatory mechanisms fail deterioration appears more rapid than it really is. Causes of adult onset dementia: (not an exhaustive list) and mixed pathologies are common (33.8%)

    Extractions: The cerebellum: its parts and their connections. The cerebellum has three functional divisions, based on the principal sources of afferent fibres. The vestibulocerebellum (salmon pink, surrounded by a thin yellow line on the diagram) consists of the nodule and the two flocculi. Afferents are from the vestibular ganglion and nuclei. The spinocerebellum (light beige on diagram, and demarcated by a thick yellow line) consists of the vermis and adjacent cortex of the anterior lobe and of part of the posterior lobe. The dorsal and ventral spinocerebellar tracts terminate in these regions.

Preview : Myoclonic and choreic disorders encompass a wide range of manifestations, from simple jerking during sleep in neurologically normal persons to wild, potentially injurious flailing in patients with ballismus. Recognition of the type and cause of the disorder is the first step toward helping patients achieve better functioning when possible. Dr Caviness reviews classification of myoclonus and chorea and discusses appropriate evaluation and the available treatment options.

    Extractions: New Delhi Dementia is a clinical syndrome characterized by acquired losses of cognitive and emotional abilities severe enough to interfere with daily functioning. Dementing illness is an important cause of disability in the elderly. With improving medical facilities and an increasing life expectancy, the number of patients with demential is expected to rise. The care of these patients will have a growing impact and will pose an increasing burden on the family, the health care systems and the society. Epidemiology The prevalence rates according to western studies range from 5-10 percent for all persons over the age of 65 years. These rates appear to double roughly every 5 years to reach 25-50 percent for persons over 85 years of age . The exact prevalence of these disorders in India is difficult to guess, as no recent population based prevalence study has been published. However, in a population-based survey reported in 1981, of 18,721 individuals, 861 were above the age of 60 years. Of these 181 randomly selected individuals, 6 percent were found to be demented . Most of the other studies conducted in India are inadequate as the validity of the criteria used to define and assess dementia needs to be questioned. Another confounding factor is the diversity of educational status and literacy in our population. There is also a general belief that the amount of vascular dementias (VaD) would outnumber the Alzheimer's dementias (AD) in our population.

There are dozens of pathophysiologic causes of dementia. Because dementia is seen in the context of so many conditions, dementia is one of the most common findings encountered by neurologists who see adult patients. A. MAGNITUDE OF THE PROBLEM The population over 65 years of age is increasing rapidlyfrom 23 million in 1978 (11% of the population) to 51 million by 2030 (about 19% of the population). If life expectancy continues to rise, and the mean age of onset of dementia does not, some authors have projected that about 45% of the population would develop dementia at some point during their lives (with life expectancy extending into the late 90’s).
