Demência devida à doença de Alzheimer é a forma mais comum de demência. O início é insidioso, com o comprometimento da memória tipicamente relatado como a queixa de apresentação inicial. A evolução característica é um declínio lento mas sustentado de um nível prévio de funcionalidade cognitiva, com o comprometimento de domínios cognitivos adicionais (tais como funções executivas, atenção, linguagem, cognição e julgamento sociais, velocidade psicomotora, habilidades visuoperceptivas ou visuoespaciais) surgindo com a progressão da doença. A demência devida à doença de Alzheimer pode ser acompanhada por sintomas mentais e comportamentais, como humor deprimido e apatia nos estágios iniciais da doença e pode ser acompanhada por sintomas psicóticos, irritabilidade, agressividade, confusão, anormalidades de marcha e mobilidade, e convulsões em estágios mais avançados. Testagem genética positiva, história familiar e declínio cognitivo gradual são sugestivos de demência devida à doença de Alzheimer. | |||

Dementia due to Alzheimer disease is the most common form of dementia. Onset is insidious with memory impairment typically reported as the initial presenting complaint. The characteristic course is a slow but steady decline from a previous level of cognitive functioning with impairment in additional cognitive domains (such as executive functions, attention, language, social cognition and judgment, psychomotor speed, visuoperceptual or visuospatial abilities) emerging with disease progression. Dementia due to Alzheimer disease may be accompanied by mental and behavioural symptoms such as depressed mood and apathy in the initial stages of the disease and may be accompanied by psychotic symptoms, irritability, aggression, confusion, abnormalities of gait and mobility, and seizures at later stages. Positive genetic testing, family history and gradual cognitive decline are suggestive of Dementia due to Alzheimer disease. | |||
