UNDERSTANDING DEMENTIA Dementia is not a single disease but an umbrella term used to describe a range of neurological conditions affecting memory, thinking, behavior, and the ability to perform everyday activities. The most common types of dementia include: 1. Alzheimer's Disease: Characterized by plaques and tangles in the brain, leading to progressive memory loss and cognitive decline. 2. Vascular Dementia: Resulting from impaired blood flow to the brain, often following strokes or other vascular conditions. 3. Lewy Body Dementia: Marked by abnormal protein deposits in the brain, causing fluctuations in cognitive function, visual hallucinations, and movement disorders. 4. Frontotemporal Dementia: Involving the degeneration of the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain, affecting personality, behavior, and language.
