What is Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease?什麼是早發性老人癡呆症?
Early onset Alzheimer's is considered when someone gets the form of dementia known as Alzheimer's disease when they are younger than age 65.早發性老年癡呆症被認為是當有人獲得形式的老年癡呆症被稱為阿爾茨海默病的,當他們年輕的年齡超過65歲。 While Alzheimer's disease itself is not a sure symptom of aging, it is not commonly seen in those that are this young.而阿爾茨海默病的本身並不是一個肯定的症狀老化,這是不常見的,在那些被這個年輕的。 It is also very rare; only six to eight percent of those with the disease have early onset Alzheimer's.這亦是非常罕見的;只有六至八%的受訪者與疾病有早發性老年癡呆症的。 This translates to roughly about 300,000 Americans who contract the disease each year.這轉化為大約30.0萬美國人誰合約疾病每年。
Very rarely does someone get early onset Alzheimer's in their thirties or forties.很少有人不得到早發性老年癡呆症的在三十歲或四十歲。 It is more common to see the disease when a person is in their fifties.這是較為常見的見的疾病,當一個人在其五十年代。 The risk of contracting the disease of course increases with age.風險承包的疾病,當然隨著年齡而增長。
Does Early Onset Alzheimer's Progress at a Faster Rate? 不早發性老年癡呆症的進展更快的速度呢?
Alzheimer's disease is degenerative, meaning that it gets worse as time goes on.阿爾茨海默病是退行性,也就是說它會進一步惡化隨著時間的推移。 The rate at which it progresses is different for everyone.率在它的進展是不同的每一個人。 There seems to be a common misconception that early onset Alzheimer's progresses faster than normal, but this doesn't seem to be the case.似乎有一個共同的誤解,以為早發性老年癡呆症的進展速度比正常的,但這並不似乎是如此。 Hard data from actual research on patients does not support the thought that it will progress faster than any normal case of Alzheimer's.硬數據,從實際出發研究對病人的不支持,認為會的進展速度比任何正常的案件阿爾茨海默氏症。
Special Considerations With Early Onset Alzheimer's 特別考慮與早發性老年癡呆症' s
Because Alzheimer's is considered to be an old person's disease, when someone has the early onset of the disease in their fifties, it's often overlooked as being a medical condition.由於阿爾茨海默氏症被認為是一歲人的疾病,當有人有早發性的疾病在其五十年代,它的往往被忽視,因為作為一個醫療條件。 Alzheimer's causes confusion, irritability, forgetfulness, and neglect of basic everyday routines such as hygiene and safety concerns (locking doors, bringing in the pets, etc.).阿爾茨海默氏症的原因混亂,易怒,健忘,忽略了基本的日常例程,如衛生和安全的關注(上鎖的門,使在寵物等) 。 When these things show themselves with someone in their fifties, it may be assumed that they're simply becoming cranky and irritable, or purposefully neglectful.當這些東西顯示自己與某人在其五十年代,可以假定他們只是成為cranky和易怒,或故意疏忽。 Rarely do even doctors think to check for early onset Alzheimer's.很少這樣做,甚至醫生認為,以檢查早發性老年癡呆症的。
Difficulties on the job and within families can be magnified.困難,對就業和家庭可以被放大。 Someone that contract Alzheimer's in their 80's is probably already retired and expects their life to be winding down.有人認為,合同阿爾茨海默氏症在其80的可能是已經退休的,並期望他們的生活將收尾。 Someone in their fifties may be completely unprepared for the problems that accompany early onset Alzheimer's, as will be their spouses and other family members.有人在其五十年代可能是完全毫無準備的問題,伴隨著早發性老年癡呆症的,因為將他們的配偶和其他家庭成員。 The thought of so many years that they expected to still be strong and active suddenly slipping away can be devastating.想到這麼多年,他們預期仍是有力和積極的突然流失,可以是毀滅性的。
New treatment methods are being researched every day for early onset Alzheimer's, so perhaps one day doctors will find a way to cure the disease, and perhaps even prevent it altogether.新的治療方法正在研究,每天早發性老年癡呆症的,因此,或許有一天,醫生會找到一個方法治療疾病,甚至可能防止它共有。
