Abstract:
“Impresiones en azul” se corresponde con el nombre genérico de varios talleres dentro de un programa de educación artística para personas con demencia temprana, realizados en el Centro de Referencia Estatal de Atención a Personas con Enfermedad de Alzheimer y otras Demencias, de Salamanca, dependiente del IMSERSO. El objetivo de este programa era evaluar si la implementación de actividades artísticas podía ser una estrategia eficaz para promover el bienestar y las capacidades psicosociales, cognitivas y de comunicación de las personas con demencia temprana y, en consecuencia, una manera de mejorar los sistemas de cuidado de los mayores con principios de demencia. Estos talleres consistieron en el desarrollo de una sencilla técnica fotográfica, combinada con nuevas tecnologías. La investigación psicosocial cualitativa fue la metodología utilizada, prevista en tres fases: diseño de las actividades, desarrollo y seguimiento de los mismos y análisis de las producciones artísticas de los asistentes. Las conclusiones a las que se han llegado se pueden resumir en las siguientes: la demencia no ha supuesto problema alguno para el desarrollo de los talleres, el interés demostrado por los pacientes ha sido significativo, obteniendo resultados positivos en relación con su bienestar psicosocial, se ha experimentado un incremento de la comunicación entre los asistentes, tanto en sus relaciones interpersonales, como en su proyección al exterior y, por último, merece la pena destacar los modelos que pueden ser desarrollados en el cuidado de las personas con demencia temprana.“Impressions in blue” is the generic name given to several workshops belonging to an Art Education program targeted to people with early dementia, carried out in the State Centre for the Attention to People with Alzheimer Disease and other Dementias, in Salamanca, dependent on the IMSERSO. The aim of this program was assessing if the implementation of artistic activities could be an efficient strategy for promoting wellbeing and psychosocial, cognitive and communication capacities in people with early dementias and, therefore, improve the caring systems for the elderly with early dementias. These workshops consisted on the development of a simple photographic technique, combined with new technologies. The psychosocial qualitative research was the chosen methodology and was organised in three phases: activities design, development, follow-up and analysis of the artistic productions done by the participants. The conclusions drawn can be outlined as follows: Dementia didn’t cause any problem while developing the workshops; the interest shown by the participants was remarkable, obtaining positive reactions in regard to their psycho-social wellbeing; it was observed an increase in communication amongst the participants, not only in their personal relationships but also in their contact with the outside; lastly, it is worth highlighting the models that can be developed in the early dementia care.

Abstract:
When patients present with a dementia syndrome at a young age, the experienced clinician will automatically include uncommon dementias in the diagnostic considerations, as familial uncommon dementias due to genetic mutations frequently present as early-onset dementias. This paper highlights why uncommon dementias due to genetic mutations, although marginal in terms of prevalence numbers in the total population, are of significance in the quest to unravel the underlying cause of common dementias such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), frontotemporal dementias (FTD) and vascular dementia (VaD).

Abstract:
The concept of dementia should not be used synonymously with the concept of organic mental disorders. By definition, according to DSM-III and ICD-10, dementia is a syndrome which includes memory impairment. The severity of the disorder is disabling and the course is chronic. Differential diagnosis includes age-associated memory impairment (AAMI), delirium, and depressive disorders. The dementias may be subdivided into four groups: idiopathic (primary degenerative dementias), vascular, secondary, and others. The idiopathic dementias are those in which etiology is assumed to be found within the brain itself. The main subgroup is Alzheimer-type dementia. The vascular dementias are those in which the blood supply to the brain is insufficient. Multi-infarct dementia (MID) is the prototype. In secondary dementias, somatic disorders either within or external to the brain cause the dementia.

Abstract:
The mechanisms that initiate dementia are poorly understood and there are currently no treatments that can slow their progression. The identification of key genes and molecular pathways that may trigger dementia should help reveal potential therapeutic reagents. In this study, SWItch Miner software was used to identify phosphodiesterase 4D-interacting protein as a key factor that may lead to the development of Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Inflammation, PI3K-AKT, and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis were identified as the main pathways that are dysregulated in these dementias. All of these dementias are regulated by 12 shared transcription factors. Protein–chemical interaction network analysis of dementia switch genes revealed that valproic acid may be neuroprotective for these dementias. Collectively, we identified shared and unique dysregulated gene expression, pathways and regulatory factors among dementias. New key mechanisms that lead to the development of dementia were revealed and it is expected that these data will advance personalized medicine for patients.

Abstract:
Latar Belakang: Prevalensi demensia saat ini semakin meningkat, mengenai usia diatas 65 tahun dan risikonya meningkat 2 kali setiap penambahan usia 5 tahun. Salah satu bentuk demensia adalah mixed dementia. Diagnosis mixed dementia sangat sulit dan memberikan tantangan tersendiri bagi para klinisi. Pada artikel ini, penulis ingin membahas mengenai tinjauan diagnosis dan tatalaksana mixed dementia. Hasil: Diagnosis mixed dementia dapat menggunakan beberapa kriteria yaitu International Classification of Diseases and Health Related Problems 10th Revision (ICD-10), the Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnostic and Treatment Centers (ADDTC), dan the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and Association Internationale pour la Recherche et l’Enseignement en Neurosciences (NINDS-AIREN). Tatalaksana mixed dementia berupa terapi farmakologi untuk gejala gangguan kognitif dengan pemberian golongan inhibitor kolinesterase dan antagonis NMDA. Terapi farmakologi untuk gangguan psikis dan perilaku dengan antipsikotik atau antidepresan. Managemen faktor risiko hipertensi, konsumsi nutrisi yang sehat, dan olah raga teratur sebagai upaya preventif dan mencegah progresivitas mixed dementia. Kesimpulan: Diagnosis mixed dementia meliputi gejala demensia Alzheimer dan demensia pada penyakit serebrovaskuler. Tatalaksana mixed dementia meliputi terapi gangguan kognitif, psikis, dan perilaku, serta tatalaksana faktor risiko penyakit serebrovaskuler. Dibutuhkan penelitian lebih lanjut serta adanya konsensus diagnosis dan tatalaksana mixed dementia baik nasional maupun internasional agar tercapai tatalaksana secara komprehensif.

Abstract:
AbstractDementia is a state of cognitive dysfunction which leads to functional decline. It is a syndrome caused by several medical and neurological causes, but most cases of dementia are due to “primary dementias.” Primary dementias are neurological diseases whose manifestations are predominantly cognitive. Most primary dementias are caused by neurodegenerative proteinopathies where an accumulation of misfolded proteins leads to neuronal loss, neuroinflammation and glial reaction. Each proteinopathy is characterized by the type of protein implicated in its pathophysiology. Neurodegenerative dementias include the most prevalent cause of dementia—Alzheimer's disease—as well as Lewy body dementia, Parkinson's disease dementia, frontotemporal dementias, and prion diseases. Vascular dementia, especially small vessel disease, though not a neurodegenerative condition, is often grouped together with primary dementias. Each type of proteinopathy, characterized by the location and nature of misfolded protein accumulation, may correspond to a particular clinical phenotype. The correspondence between pathologies and clinical phenotypes is not exclusive, and there is a large degree of overlap. Although in the research setting the clinicopathological construct is on the wane, in the clinic it is the most practical way of approaching primary dementias. In this article, we introduce the clinicopathological construct, the understanding of which will form the basis of the other articles in this volume.

Abstract:
Sammanfattning Bakgrund: På grund av att människor lever längre så kommer antal personer med demens också att öka. Med stigande ålder och ökad närvaro av kroniska sjukdomar så som demenssjukdom, blir det även en ökning av undernäringsproblematik hos den äldre befolkningen.   Syftet: Föreliggande litteraturstudies syfte var att beskriva hinder och möjligheter för att sjuksköterskan ska kunna uppmärksamma, förhindra och minimera undernäring hos äldre dementa på äldreboenden. Syftet var också att granska artiklarnas kvalitét utifrån den metodologiska aspekten urval. Metod: En litteraturstudie med deskriptiv ansats genomfördes baserat på 16 vetenskapliga artiklar som söktes i databaserna Pubmed, Chinal och Scopus. Resultat: Studien visar att demenssjukdomens tre stadier orsakar nutritionsproblem. Bristande kommunikation och interaktion, utebliven måltidsträning och biverkningar av vissa läkemedel påverkade dementa äldres nutrition på ett negativt sett. Uteblivna bedömningar och bristande utbildning/kunskap hindrar sjuksköterskan att uppmärksamma undernäringar. Sjuksköterskan kan använda sig av mätinstrument till hjälp för att upptäcka undernäring och de med risk för undernäring. Sjuksköterskan kan ändra i miljön samt sätta in hjälpinsatser så som näringsdrycker, så det ska gynna nutritionen bättre. Måltidsträning har visat sig hjälpa personer med demens att minska sina ätsvårigheter och öka i vikt. Näringskunskapen visade sig vara högre bland dem med högre utbildning. Slutsats: Sjuksköterskor som arbetar på äldreboenden för dementa äldre, har ett ansvar att se till att näringsbehoven blir uppfyllda. Nutritionsvård är ett teamarbete. I en del av sjuksköterskans arbetsområde ingår rollen som ledare, vilket innebär att utbilda och informera övrig vårdpersonal i nutritionsvård. Det finns mycket forskning kring demens och undernäring, men få studier har genomförts utifrån den dementa personens perspektiv. Därför är ytterligare forskning baserat på intervjuer med dementa personer relevant.
Abstract. Background: Because people live longer the number of people with dementia will also increase. With old age and increasing presence of chronic diseases such as dementia, it will also be an increase in the malnutrition problem in the elderly population. Aim: The present study’s aim was to describe the obstacles and opportunities for the nurse to pay attention to, prevent and minimize malnutrition in elderly demented in geriatric care. The aim was also to scrutinize the quality of the articles based on the methodological aspect selection. Method: A literature review with a descriptive approach was conducted based on 16 research articles that were searched in PubMed, Scopus and Chinal. Results: The study shows that the three stages of dementia causes nutritional problems. Lack of communication and interaction in the eating environment, lack of mealtime training and side effects of certain drugs affected the nutrition of people with dementia negatively. Lack of assessments and the lack of education / knowledge hinders the nurse to detect malnutrition. The nurse can use instruments to help to detect malnutrition and those at risk of malnutrition. The nurse may also change in the environment and put into relief efforts such as nutritional beverages, so that it benefits the nutrition better. Mealtime training has been shown to help people with dementia to reduce their eating difficulties and gain weight. Nutritional knowledge was found to be higher among those with higher education Conclusion: Nurses, who work in nursing homes for older people with dementia, have a responsibility to ensure that nutritional needs are met. Nutritional care is a team work. Parts of the nurse’s work include the role of being a leader, which means to educate and inform other healthcare professionals in nutritional care. There is extensive research on dementia and malnutrition, but few studies have been conducted using the demented person's perspective. Therefore, further research based on interviews with people with dementia is relevant.

Abstract:
Approximately 30% of elderly stroke survivors develop post-stroke dementia (PSD). The mechanisms underlying this cognitive decline following stroke are unclear. Vascular pathology is associated with the frontal lobe, damage to which may result in executive dysfunction; a common clinical outcome of PSD. Previous pathological studies in PSD subjects have found that pyramidal neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus were particularly vulnerable, with atrophy of these cells associated with cognitive impairment. In this study we test the hypothesis that similar changes in pyramidal neurons in the three prefrontal circuits which control executive function may be related to executive dysfunction. The three circuits are; the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC). Histological and immunohistochemical staining with three dimensional morphometric analysis and quantitative image analysis was carried out in fixed paraffin-embedded prefrontal brain sections from the MRC funded CogFAST study (a long-term prospective study designed to investigate delayed dementia after stroke) as well as frontal brain tissue from aged-matched controls and pathologically defined dementia groups: vascular dementia (VaD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and those with mixed Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia (mixed). Pyramidal neuron volumes were significantly reduced in PSD, VaD, mixed, and AD when compared to aged-controls and post-stroke non demented (PSND) subjects in layer III, with layer V following a similar pattern. The neuronal changes in PSD correlated with global and executive function scores and were associated with markers for mitochondrial function, though did not correlate with tau or amyloid burden. Neuronal volumes in the ACC and the OFC did not significantly vary between groups; however pyramidal neurons within the OFC were significantly smaller in all groups (controls and disease) when compared to controls in dlPFC and ACC. There were no significant changes in pyramidal neuron densities between PSND and PSD in any of the three frontal regions. Analysis of the interneuronal densities revealed no significant differences between inhibitory neurons in PSND and PSD subjects. Pyramidal neuron ii volume changes did not appear to be associated with white matter (WM) pathology in post-stroke subjects. These findings suggest that pyramidal neuronal volume loss in the dlPFC is associated with cognitive decline in post-stroke and ageing-related dementia. The lack of relationship between AD type pathology, WM pathology, or interneuronal changes suggests dysfunction of the pyramidal neurons in the dlPFC play an important role in the development of executive dysfunction in PSD.

Abstract:
La senilidad no es un fenómeno nuevo. El cambio es la conceptualización de este estado de pérdida cognitiva como situación morbosa. El deterioro senil aparece, desde hace cuatro décadas, como un concepto nuevo, presente en la mirada médica y, por extensión, en la mirada social. Pero hasta hace unas décadas, la senilidad no era objeto de estudio de la medicina. Actualmente, sin embargo, goza de una gestión técnica, farmacológica y médica y su lugar natural es la clínica. El objetivo de este estudio es descubrir qué «condiciones de posibilidad» se están dando en este momento histórico para que la categoría demencia senil se esté elevando al rango de patología; para que se esté reemplazando la categoría senilidad por la de demencia senil como nuevo concepto, y para que los ancianos seniles se conviertan en enfermos. En definitiva hemos examinado cómo se ha pasado de la senilidad a la construcción de la demencia senil y del anciano demente, explorando la construcción histórica de esta nueva subjetividad vinculada a la vejez. Se ha considerado que el deterioro senil, caracterizado en tanto que síndrome patológico, es una invención que resulta de la estructura axiológica de la sociedad. El esquema de valores que conforman el marco de interacción social en el que nos movemos dificultan un encaje no problemático de la vejez en general y de la demencia en particular. La hipótesis de partida ha sido que la medicalización de la demencia senil legitima la exclusión social de los ancianos.
The aim of the present study was to determine which possibility conditions are currently taking place to uplift the category of senile dementia to the realm pathologies; and to point out why the category senility is being replaced by senile dementia as a new concept, altogether allowing the conversion from elders to patients. Briefly, we have investigated the conceptual transition from senility to senile dementia, and how this term and also the term demented have both been historically constructed, yielding, as a result of this process, a new subjectivity linked to the old age.

Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar se o perfil de atividade física desenvolvido por pacientes com demência apresenta benefício na redução dos distúrbios neuropsiquiátricos e no desgaste mental dos cuidadores. Também foram analisadas as associações entre o perfil de atividade física desenvolvido pelos cuidadores na redução dos sintomas de ansiedade e de depressão. Foram estudados 118 sujeitos (59 pacientes com demência de Alzheimer, demência vascular e demência mista, e os 59 respectivos cuidadores). Os participantes foram recrutados no Ambulatório de Psiquiatria Geriátrica, Hospital das Clínicas, UNICAMP. Para coleta dos dados, foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos: a) paciente - Inventário Neuropsiquiátrico - NPI (CUMMINGS et al., 1994) e o Mini-Questionário do Sono - MQS (ZOMER et al., 1985); b) cuidadores - Inventário Neuropsiquiátrico - NPI (CUMMINGS et al., 1994), o Mini- Questionário do Sono (ZOMER et al., 1985) e a Escala de Ansiedade e Depressão (ZIGMOND & SNAITH 1983). Ambos os grupos foram inquiridos quanto à prática de exercícios físicos mensurada pelo Questionário Baecke Modificado para Idosos - QBMI (VOORRIPS et al., 1991). A análise dos dados consistiu do teste U-Mann Whitney e da análise de regressão linear, do tipo stepwise. Admitiu-se nível de significância de 5% (p<0.05). Todos os participantes foram classificados em dois perfis de atividade física (segundo o QBMI): a) participantes com um perfil de menor atividade física; b) participantes com um perfil de maior atividade física. Os resultados indicaram que os pacientes com demência de Alzheimer, com perfil de maior atividade física apresentavam menos distúrbios neuropsiquiátricos e causavam menor desgaste mental no seu cuidador. Os pacientes com demência vascular, cujos cuidadores realizavam atividades aeróbias tinham um sono melhor. Os cuidadores de pacientes com demência mista e que tinham um perfil de maior atividade.
This cross-sectional study aimed analyzing if the physical activity profile, developed by patients with dementia, would benefit the reduction of neuropsychiatric disorders and the mental burden of the carers. The associations between the physical activity profile developed by the carers in the reduction of mental burden and symptoms of anxiety and depression were analyzed. There were studied 118 subjects were studied (59 patients with Alzheimer dementia, vascular dementia and mixed dementia, and their 59 carers). The participants were recruited in the Clinic of Geriatric Psychiatry, Hospital das Clínicas, UNICAMP. To collect data, the following tools were used: a) patient – Neuropsychiatric Inventory – NPI (CUMMINGS et al., 1994) and the Mini-Sleep Questionnaire – MSQ (ZOMER et al., 1985); b) carers – Neuropsychiatric Inventory – NPI (CUMMINGS et al., 1994), the Mini-Sleep Questionnaire – MSQ (ZOMER et al., 1985) and the Anxiety and Depression Scale (ZIGMOND & SNAITH 1983). Both groups were asked about the practice of physical activities measured by the Modified Baecke Questionnaire for Older Adults – MBQOA (VOORRIPS et al., 1991). To analyze data, the test U-Mann Whitney was used as well as the linear regression stepwise. The meaning level 5% (p<0.05) was accepted. All the participants were classified in two physical activity profiles (according to MBQOA): a) participants who presented a low physical activity profile; b) participants with a high physical activity profile. The results showed that the patients with Alzheimer dementia, with a high physical activity profile, presented less neuropsychiatric disorders and caused less mental burden on their carers. The patients with vascular dementia, whose carers practiced aerobic activities, had a better sleep. Also, the carers of patients with mixed dementia and who had a high physical activity profile suffered less mental burden with their patients.

Abstract:
Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur biståndshandläggare utreder äldre dementas behov utifrån vad de dementa uppger och uttrycker. Syftet har preciserats i frågeställningar som innefattar hur biståndshandläggare säkerställer att äldre dementa får den vård och omsorg de är i behov av samt hur de säkerställer att vården och omsorgen blir utifrån den demenssjukes önskemål och självbestämmanderätt. I studien tillämpades en kvalitativ metod och datainsamlingsmetoden var semistrukturerade intervjuer. Totalt intervjuades sju biståndshandläggare som arbetar med biståndsbedömning gällande äldre. De teorier som tillämpades för att analysera resultatet var pliktetik, situationsetik, konsekvensetik, begreppet doxa samt handlingsutrymme. Studiens slutsatser är att det är svårt att beskriva specifika tillvägagångssätt vid utredning av äldre dementas behov då arbetet är situationsbundet. Vidare är en slutsats att dementas självbestämmanderätt inte alltid kan säkerställas vilket beror på biståndshandläggarens tillvägagångssätt. Det framkommer även att biståndshandläggare inte alltid kan säkerställa att dementa får den vård de är i behov vid bristande samtycke, eftersom biståndshandläggarens handlingsutrymme i dessa fall inte räcker till.

SUMMARY Relevance and novelty of the topic. Cargivers of persons with clinical dementia experience a lot of social, psychological and physical health problems and feel burdened. Until recently there has been very little analysis of stress factors influencing the caregivers stress. Aim of the study. To measure and examine psychosocial stress of family members and relatives who are caregivers of persons with dementia at home. Methods. Caregivers of persons with dementia filled out an anonymous qeustionaire. The interviews were conducted from December, 2004 to February, 2005. Respondents, who participated in research, were members of Kaunas and Vilnius Alzheimer’s clubs, and the data was collected during the meetings of these two clubs in Kaunas Dainava Center for Psychological Health and Vilnius Antakalnis health centre respectively. 22 respondents were from Kaunas and 28 from Vilnius. From the 50 respondents, who participated in research, 35 (70%) were women, and 15 (30%) were men. The average age was 62 years (the range of age was 40-94 years). The questionnaire that was used to gather data consisted of five parts: general questions about the caregiver and the person with clinical dementia; Greene’s Relatives Stress Scale, Clinical Dementia Rating Scale and Rapid Disability Rating Scale. Results. 7 (14%) respondents experienced a low level of psychosocial stress, 30 (60%) – average, and 13 (26%) – high level of stress. Most often the caregiver for person with clinical...

Abstract:
Dementia is an age-associated organic brain disorder, recogniz­able by the essential features of psychological or behavioral abnormality associated with permanent dysfunction of the brain interfering with social and occupational functioning. There are two clinical and three histopathological forms of dementia 1) primary degenerative dementia, (PDD), or Alzhei­mer's dementia/Senile dementia of Alzheimers type (AD/SDAT) which is associated with clinical features of uniform progres­sion and insidious onset of symptoms and histopathologically i- dentified by the occurrence of neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and senile/neuritic plaques (SP/NP) in various cortical and subcor- tical regions; 2) vascular dementia, or multi-infarct dementia (MID), which is associated with clinical features of stepwise progress and patchy distribution of deficits, and histopatholo­gically identified by the occurrence of multiple large and/or small haemorrhagic and/or ischaemic infarcts in various cortical and subcortical regions and 3) intermediate form of dementia or "mixed” ("combined") dementia (AD-MID), which is histopatho- logically associated with the coexistance of symptoms and le­sions observed in AD/SDAT and MID, and clinically referred to the MID group. The DSM-III criteria separate the demented into two groups, AD/SDAT and MID, while there are no unique clinical criteria for the AD-MID patients. The clinical diagnosis of dementia according to the DSM-III criteria was shown to be in­sufficient . Histopathological diagnostic criteria were postu­lated by us for 1) pathological changes developing in mentallyunimpaired ageing, 2) AD/ SPAT, 3) MID and 4) AD-MID. These histopathological classes could be separated, by means of multivariate data analysis. The pathology in AD-MID was shown not to be merely a linear combination of the AD/SDATand MID pathology. Intrathecal synthesis of Ig, oligoclonal bands or other abnormal proteins in the CSF could not be demonstrated in aged non-demen- ted and demented patients. The blood-cerebrospinal barrier (B-CSF-B) or blood-brain barrier (BBB) function alters with age and this alteration was shown to be more pronounced in MID and AD-MID patients. In MID and AD-MID patients the BBB alteration involves primarily the grey matter while in AD/SDAT patients the alteration would appear to involve only the white matter. The BBB dysfunction and a possible complement activation, either through antibody-anti- gen activation or other complement activators, was visualized in MID and AD-MID patients as perivascular serum protein depo­sits in the grey matter, always with a capillary in the center. The occurrence of some serum proteins in plaques, and the previously descibed localization of plaques in close relation­ship to the capillaries, suggest that altered BBB function and serum factors may be involved in the etiology and maturation of plaques while the etiology and maturation of tangles may not be directly dependent on these factors, as they were never labelled with any of the antisera studied.

Abstract:
The rate at which elderly are being diagnosed with dementia has accelerated over the recent years and it is alarming [1]. They are three times more likely to fall and over three times more likely to have severe injury compared to cognitively unimpaired elderly [2]. Consequently, recently there is an interest in the identification of biomarkers that can contribute towards, or establish, early detection and diagnosis of dementia.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Dementia is a collective term for several diseases that affect memory, other cognitive abilities, and behavior. These diseases can seriously interfere with people’s ability of daily living. This is not a normal phenomenon of aging. With the increasing prevalence of dementia in the elderly, the importance of dementia as a comorbidity of hypertension is increasing. However, several questions regarding the link between hypertension and dementia remain unresolved. This study aimed to determine Orientation-Memory-Concentration-Test (OMCT) can be used to assess cognitive function in the elderly as an early step in the early detection of dementia. Subjects and Method: This was a comparative study using a case-control design. The study was conducted in Jetis Sub-District, Yogyakarta from September 2019 to June 2020. A total sample of 110 of elderly was divided into two groups 42 elderly (case), and 68 elderly (control) selected by consecutive sampling using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Clock-Drawing Test (CDT) and Orientation-Memory-Concentration Test (OMCT). The dependent variables were the sensitivity and specificity level of the OMCT instrument while the scores of the MMSE. The independent variable was CDT instruments. The collected data will then be processed by diagnostic analysis followed by analysis of ROC and Youden’s index to determine the optimal cut off. Respondents are categorized as having impaired cognitive function if the MMSE (cut off ≤ 24) or CDT (cut off <18) shows a positive result. Results: 110 elderlies were involved. A total of 42 elderlies were included in the case population, and 68 elderlies were included in the control population. In the total OMCT population (cut off> 11) it has a sensitivity (29%) and specificity (97%) to the combination of MMSE and CDT. In populations with hypertension OMCT (cut off> 2.5) has sensitivity (68%) with specificity (46%). In a population without hypertension OMCT (cut off> 7) has a sensitivity (55%) and specificity (90%) to the combination of MMSE and CDT. Conclusion: OMCT can be used as a screening tool for cognitive dysfunction in older people with hypertension because of its short duration, ease of use, and can be used in patients with visual impairments.

Abstract:
Introduction:The lack of engagement and the shortage of motivation and drive, also referred to as apathy, negatively impacts the effectiveness and adherence to treatment and the general well-being of people with neurocognitive disorders (NCDs), such as dementia. Methodology:The hypothesis raised states that the engagement of people with dementia during their non-invasive treatments for NCDs is affected by the noisy source levels and negative auditory stimuli present within environmental treatment settings. An online survey was conducted with the study objectives to assess 1) the engagement levels of dementia patients while interacting with others at home versus in therapy facilities, 2) the emotions perceived when interacting with people at home compared to therapy sessions, 3) the perceived loudness of the environment at home versus in therapy facilities, and 4) which source sounds negatively impact the patients at home and during therapy sessions. A purposive sampling (n=62) targeting relatives, friends, and caregivers of dementia patients was conducted via online community forums in the DACH region. Moreover, a recording session was conducted in a psychotherapist’s office to verify the answer tothe questionnaire on the noise sources perceived in therapy facilities. Results and Discussion:The raised hypothesis that disruptive auditory stimuli and noise levels influence the engagement levels of demented individuals during treatment is confirmed as the engagement is affected by the perceived noise disruptions when comparing perceived noise levels and engagement at home to those in treatment facilities.Significant statistical results were found between the lower engagement of demented individuals when interacting with people during therapy sessions compared to higher engagement in-home interactions. Furthermore, negatively perceived sound sources can be found in both therapy facilities and home settings. The noise sound sources identified, such as human voices, household appliances and household noises, while recording inthe psychotherapist’s office align with the questionnaire responses received on this topic. The findings indicate that the perceived heightened noise levels in therapy facilities stand in correlation with the lowered engagement rate perceived during the therapy session compared to the lower noise level and higher engagement encountered when demented individuals interact at home. Conclusion:If the identified noise elements are masked or replaced by other auditory stimuli that promote a soothing soundscape, the original disturbances encountered during therapy and the lack of engagement can possibly be minimized. Further studies need to be conducted in the prototyping of a noise intervention tool to analyze the impact on lack of engagement through noise disturbances.Keywords. Noise, Engagement, Dementia, Therapy, Apathy.INTRODUCTIONNeurocognitive disorders (NCDs) are a steadily rising global public health concern. In 2020, around 50 million people worldwide lived with major NCDs, specifically dementia, with nearly 10 million new cases per year1NCDs can be found in many diseases, including Alzheimer, Parkinson, Huntington, and Creutzfeldt-Jakob (Reith, 2018). The causes of NCDs are typically associated with advanced age. Still, it can occur from incidents such as traumatic brain injuries, infections, thyroid problems, damage to the blood vessels, and other causes (Kane et al., 2017), increasingly affecting a wide range of people and age groups. Successful treatment methods are limited and can be split into two main categories, invasive and non-invasive methods.Invasive treatment methods are surgical procedures, such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), a neurosurgical procedure in which a neurotransmitter is placed in the brain to send electrical 1World Health Organization, Dementia [website] https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/dementia(accessed 12 April 2021)

Abstract:
Social Robotics is becoming more relevant for the healthcare sector as an increasing amount of research and development is invested by researchers and practice. One research area where additional research would help the acceptation and adoption of social robots is intramural care where people with dementia live. The current body of knowledge on this topic can be described as nascent. In this study, we add to the body of knowledge regarding the design and enactment of social robots like the one used in this study, the Tessa robot, with the goal to improve acceptation and adoption of social robots in dementia care. To do so, we conducted a case study at a healthcare organization, featuring semi-structured interviews, observations and talking mats. During this case study, an experiment was carried out in which a Tessa robot was used in intramural care with three clients suffering from dementia. The most important finding of this study is that for the robot to be accepted and effective it must be implemented properly in the existing healthcare processes, otherwise it might serve as a companion, but will not relieve the workload of healthcare workers.

Abstract:
Moždani udar (MU) ili cerebrovaskularni inzult (CVI), koji se može definirati kao disfunkcija mozga koja nastaje zbog poremećaja protoka krvi kroz mozak, predstavlja drugi najčešći uzrok smrti odraslih u svjetskoj populaciji (1). MU pogađa 33 miliona ljudi svake godine u svijetu, a jedna trećina MU dešava se u zemljama u razvoju. Demencija nakon moždanog udara (post-stroke dementia / PSD) ili kognitivno oštećenje nakon moždanog udara (poststroke cognitive impairment / PSCI) pogađa oko jednu trećinu preživjelih. Opisane su različite definicije i sinonimi za PSD i PSCI. S obzirom na to da je PSD najsveobuhvatnija, predloženo je da se ovaj termin koristi za sva kognitivna oštećenja koja se razvijaju nakon moždanog udara, neposredno ili nešto kasnije. Prevalenca PSD se kreće od 20 do 80%, što varira među zemljama iz kojih stižu saopštenja, ovisno o rasi i dijagnostičkim kriterijima. Rizik za razvoj PSD vezan je kako za različite demografske faktore kao što je dob, nivo obrazovanosti, zanimanje, tako i za različite vaskularne faktore (1, 3–4). Vaskularni faktori rizika kao što su hipertenzija, diabetes mellitus, hiperlipidemija, pušenje, atrijalna fibrilacija, povećavaju rizik za razvoj kako samog MU tako i PSD. Nadalje, ponavljanje moždanih udara povećava rizik za razvoj PSD, od oko 10% nakon prvog MU do 30% nakon ponavljajućeg. Prevencija PSD može se postići prije svega prevencijom MU. Na drugoj strani primjenjuju se različite strategije u cilju ublažavanja kliničkog toka PSD, kao što je smanjenje krvnog pritiska, primjena statina, neuroprotektivnih i antiinflamatornih lijekova, bez uvjerljivih dokaza njihove efikasnosti. Analiziraju se i mogući pozitivni učinci intervencija u sferi životnih stilova, učinci različite fizičke aktivnosti, kognitivnog treninga i dr. Za sada ne postoji uvjerljiv efikasni tretman PSD, ali lijekovi koji se primjenjuju u tretmanu Alzheimerove demencije (holinesterazni inhibitori, memantin) ipak pokazuju od

Abstract:
Dementia and psychosis can arise from a trauma in patients’ life history. Behavioral difficulties of the afflicted individual can lead to bad memories triggered by an event or an encounter. Attempts to bring such patients back to reality can destroy their awareness of the self and the world. A narrative therapeutic approach can help them reconstruct their life story and enhance their sense of wellbeing. With dementia, it is necessary to open the book of the afflicted individual’s life at the right page in order to help them get back to reading it in the present. With psychosis, stories must be detached from the personal life history and from reality. An empathetic therapist allows the patient to bypass the obstacles to link their fictional and real life and to recover the necessary minimum of self.awareness.

Abstract:
The final portfolio contains 8 research articles from national and international journals. Study designs include one systematic review, one randomized control trial with pretest-posttest design, three small-scale randomized control trials, one quasi-experimental study with no control, one time-series study, and one case study. All studies relate directly to components of the evidence-based practice question and will be used to draft new recommendations for implementation regarding spaced retrieval training for memory enhancement in adults with dementia. Seven out of the eight articles looked at the effects of SR techniques on functional tasks. Articles looked at eating difficulty (1), independent use of walkers (1), iADL function (3), use of technology (1), and ADL function (1). One out of eight articles looked at benefits of spaced retrieval techniques on episodic memory, which is not necessarily a functional task, but is needed to perform functional tasks.
