Multiple Diagnostic Tests Are Needed to Assess Multiple Causes of Dementia

Validity, Reliability, and Feasibility of Clinical Staging Scales in Dementia

“…3,34 In addition, there is growing evidence that Alzheimer dementia (especially late onset AD) is a complex disease based on multicausality, with many contributing factors that cause the diversity in the clinical course of the disease and in the order and clustering of symptoms. 35–37 Furthermore, AD among the elderly persons may have different etiological factors and thus different stages, when compared with AD among younger person. 38–40 This all contributes to the notion that at present, dementia and the different subtypes can be much better characterized in their course of disease, by addressing the increasing interindividual variability in pattern and rate of progression.…”

Suicide in dementia: 9-year national clinical survey in England and Wales

“…Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia and dementia with Lewy bodies). 20 Patients with dementia under the age of 65 years were not selected for subgroup analyses as we anticipated small numbers.…”

Novelty Interventions to Enhance Broad Cognitive Abilities and Prevent Dementia

“…Dementia is a multicausal disease (see Olde Rikkert et al, 2006, for a review). For optimal prevention, it is plausible to tackle different pathological mechanisms by multiple approaches (Gillette-Guyonnet et al, 2009).…”
