To demonstrate just how hard he said the test really was, he went on TV to recite, over & over, the words that he had been asked to remember in the right order: “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.”

…The #MontrealCognitiveAssessment is meant to test for signs of #dementia, #Alzheimer’s disease or other conditions, but the #Trump talked about it on Fox News… as if he had aced an IQ test proving his intelligence. Experts said that reflected a misunderstanding about the purpose & value of the exam.

Alzheimer's disease is associated with patients having plaque destroying parts of their brains. New research indicates that the hormone irisin reduces the corresponding deposits. Irisin is produced by the body when doing physical exercise. The new findings may result in a therapy against Alzheimer's disease.

"Most recent studies support the hypothesis that T cells worsen disease, but new research from Su et al.4 reported in this issue of Nature Immunology instead describes brain-infiltrating CD8+ T cells as protectors, not perpetrators, of #Alzheimer’s disease pathology."

Surullinen #alzheimer
Muistutin äitiä lapsen synttäreistä, ja samalla tuli puheeksi 7 vuotta sitten edesmenneen isäni kahden päivän takainen syntymäpäivä. Äiti: onko isä kuollut?? Ja itku.

Ja sama keskustelu vartin päästä uudelleen.

Nach all den nicht erinnerlichen Vorwürfen gegen #Aiwanger stellt sich nun die Frage, ob dem #Auweiabayer nicht - mit Hilfe der #Alzheimer -Organisationen ein Denkmal, ggf. in Dachau-Nähe, errichtet werden sollte.

"In Hamburg zeigten viele Menschen am Donnerstag ihre Trauer. [...] Der Chef der SPD-Fraktion im Bundestag, Rolf Mützenich, würdigte Klose als "herausragenden Politiker und feinen Menschen". Dieser habe sich "mit Anstand und Würde den politischen Herausforderungen gestellt", erklärte Mützenich."

#Finland starts brain washing people. No, not *that* kind of brainwashing. University of Oulu got an innovative brain washer device to help people suffering from e.g. #ALS, #Alzheimer or #Parkinson disease.

Morgens halb zehn in Berlin: Redaktionskonferenz des Kommunikationsteams in der Helmholtz-Geschäftsstelle. Im BADEMANTEL???

Wir machen mit bei der #BademantelChallenge des @dzne zum Welt-#Alzheimer-Tag am 21. September 2023.

In Deutschland leben 1,8 Mio. Demenzerkrankte. Alzheimer und Co. sind bislang unheilbar. #Demenz ist schambehaftet. Diese Aktion soll Solidarität mit Betroffenen und Angehörigen symbolisieren und Aufmerksamkeit schaffen.

In aflevering 82 van onze #podcast #DrangNaarSamenhang bespreken we de film #StillAlice (2014) over hoe het leven van Alice en haar familie ingrijpend verandert wanneer zij op haar 50e de diagnose #Alzheimer krijgt.

Routine vaccinations for adults may have a protective effect against Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study. The researchers found that vaccines for tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, shingles, and pneumococcus were associated with a reduced risk of developing Alzheimer’s by 25% to 30%. The study suggests that vaccination may boost the immune system and prevent inflammation and neurodegeneration in the brain.

#Alzheimer ista taas päivää!
Tiesin, ettei tämä tule olemaan helppoa, mutta vaativan työn pyörittäminen, ja yksinasuvan ja ahdistuneen muistisairaan äidin hoitaminen on aika raskas pala kakkua. Siksi täytyy keksiä kaikkea kivaa, ja huomenna meillä on juhlat.

Eilen kuuntelin taas kuolematoiveita ja avunpyyntöjä, tänään hän ei halua apua. Näin se nyt menee. Ei meinaa tulla töistä mitään.

Kiitos ja anteeksi.

Don't believe the hype$ 🤑

The intelligent way to reduce neurogenerative diseases & disorders such as #Alzheimer's, #Parkinson's & #autism is prevention, not #pharmaceutical drugs that only mitigate the diseases once they've developed.

Whilst there are also genetic (variance) factors related to the development of neurogenerative diseases, there is extensive evidence that #AirPollution negatively affect the brain & contributes to central nervous system diseases https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pharmthera.2020.107523
