Although a lot of mental disorders are caused because of a certain tragic event in the person’s life, Alzheimer is a disorder whose causes are unknown. In a very few, lets say 1 out of 1000 cases, the cause is found out to be genetic. But that isn’t a satisfactory answer for the doctors. Doctors also say that this particular disease leads to other diseases as well. For example, the loss of memory and depression.Diagnosis

The diagnosis of this disease is done after a very long routine of checkup. The patient is asked about from family and friends. The symptoms of this disorder are studied over and over again and the symptoms present in the patients are referred to again and again. Clinical diagnosis doesn’t start until all the people involved in the patient’s life admit that he is suffering from Alzheimer. CT and other checkups are done to have a look inside the patient’s brain. The doctors try their best to remove all chances of other dementia developing inside the patient’s brain. The doctors then look at the parts of the brain that have been disturbed or affected. They try to cure the disease only if it is at a very first stage. Afterwards, no matter what they do, they can’t save the patient. The doctors have a critical view of the memory of the patient during diagnosis of the disease.Affect on Asia
There are a lot of Alzheimer patients in Asia as well. The patients are both men and women, but in certain places, the number of women patients in more than men patients. Alzheimer’s organization is an organization of Asia that is working on finding the cure of such disorders to reduce the number of patients, whether women or men in the country. Asia seems to be really careful about the increasing number of victims of this disease and thus the work is done on national levels.
