Abstract:
Seventy-six patients took part in a randomized, comparative study of the efficacy of buflomedil hydrochloride and dihydrogenated ergot alkaloids in the treatment of senile dementia associated with cerebrovascular insufficiency. Efficacy was assessed by the patients' performance in four psychometric tests. The results showed that a trend in favour of the buflomedil group in three of the tests became statistically significant in the fourth. Both drugs appeared to be safe, causing no marked adverse reactions. In conclusion, buflomedil is as effective or more effective than dihydrogenated ergot alkaloids in the treatment of senile dementia associated with cerebrovascular insufficiency and could prove a valuable addition to long-term therapy if further studies support the trend shown in this study.

Abstract:
Objective. To investigate the efficacy of donepezil hydrochloride plus olanzapine for senile dementia and its effect on the recovery of cognitive function. Methods. A total of 60 patients with senile dementia admitted to our hospital from April 2020 to July 2021 were recruited and assigned to receive either olanzapine alone (observation group) or donepezil hydrochloride plus olanzapine (experimental group) via the random number table method, with 30 patients in each group. Results. The combined therapy resulted in significantly higher clinical efficacy versus monotherapy of olanzapine ( P < 0.05 ). Before treatment, the difference in the scores of cognitive function between the two groups did not come up to the statistical standard ( P > 0.05 ). Donepezil hydrochloride plus olanzapine was associated with significantly higher scores of cognitive function in patients versus olanzapine alone ( P < 0.05 ). The two groups had a similar incidence of adverse reactions ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusion. Donepezil hydrochloride plus olanzapine substantially enhances the recovery of cognitive function of patients with senile dementia and features a manageable safety. Further trials are, however, required prior to clinical promotion.

Abstract:
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with cognitive deterioration affecting day to day living and behavioural activities. It is commonest cause of senile and pre-senile dementia. In Alzheimer’s disease, a peptide referred as amyloid beta aggregates (oligomers), and accumulates in the brain to form deposits called as amyloid plaques. According to the world health organization (WHO), 5% of men and 6% of women of above 60 years are victims with Alzheimer’s type dementia globally. In India prevalence of dementia is 33.6%, of which AD contributes approximately 54% and vascular dementia constitutes approximately 39%. Patients with the prolonged use of some Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drugs such as ibuprofen have lower risk of developing the symptoms of AD; however the chronic use of NSAID can produce a toxic effect on the kidney, liver and GI tract. Recent studies have demonstrated that a curcumin delivery system based on nanoscience and nanotechnology increases the therapeutic potential of this compound. Specifically, several nano-sized carriers such as phospholipid vesicles (liposomes), micelles, solid lipid nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, emulsions, proteins and other molecular complexes have been developed for the efficient delivery of curcumin. Nano particles have demonstrated the enhanced Bioavailability of curcumin including circulation time in the blood. Various nano technology drug delivery system of curcumin showed increased Bio accessibility during treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Abstract:
SynopsisRecent reports have suggested that brain stem and cortical Lewy body formation may identify a neurodegenerative disorder in elderly demented individuals which accounts for up to 20% of cases of senile dementia coming to autopsy. Retrospective analysis of case notes of 21 autopsy patients with neuropathologically proven senile dementia of Lewy body type (SDLT) and 37 cases with neuropathologically proven Alzheimer's disease (AD) identified a characteristic clinical syndrome in SDLT. Fluctuating cognitive impairment; psychotic features including visual and auditory hallucinations, and paranoid delusions; depressive symptoms; falling and unexplained losses of consciousness were all seen significantly more often than in AD.Over half of the SDLT patients in this series who were given neuroleptics in standard dose showed acute and often irreversible adverse reactions indicative of a neuroleptic sensitivity syndrome. The survival time of drug treated patients was reduced by 50%.Operational criteria to aid in the clinical distinction between SDLT and AD patients are proposed and hypotheses regarding possible aetiology and treatment discussed.

Abstract:
Abstract:Multiple neurotransmitter systems are affected in senile dementia of the Alzheimer's type (SDAT). Among them, acetylcholine has been most studied. It is now well accepted that the activity of the enzyme, choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) is much decreased in various brain regions including the frontal and temporal cortices, hippocampus and nucleus basalis of Meynert (nbm) in SDAT. Cortical M2-muscarinic and nicotinic cholinergic receptors are also decreased but only in a certain proportion (30-40%) of SDAT patients. For other systems, it appears that cortical serotonin (5-HT)-type 2 receptor binding sites are decreased in SDAT. This diminution in 5-HT2 receptors correlates well with the decreased levels of somatostatin-like immunoreactive materials found in the cortex of SDAT patients. Cortical somatostatin receptor binding sites are decreased in about one third of SDAT patients. Finally, neuropeptide Y and neuropeptide Y receptor binding sites are distributed in areas enriched in cholinergic cell bodies and nerve fiber terminals and it would be of interest to determine possible involvement of this peptide in SDAT. Thus, it appears that multi-drug clinical trials should be considered for the treatment of SDAT.

Abstract:
Senile patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are at a higher risk of thromboembolism and hemorrhage than younger patients. Three direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC), apixaban, dabigatran, and rivaroxaban, are registered in the Russian Federation and are extensively used for prevention of stroke in patients with AF. The DOAC treatment of older patients requires considering peculiarities of these patients, clinical situation and properties of individual drugs to achieve the balance of efficiency and safety and a comprehensive protection. According to studies of real clinical practice DOAC may have advantages over warfarin (reduced risk of fractures, diabetes mellitus, and dementia). Compliance with and constancy of the DOAC treatment are important for its efficiency, particularly in senile age. Results of clinical trials and real clinical practice studies have confirmed that rivaroxaban may provide a comprehensive protection for a senile patient with AF due to favorable indexes of efficiency and safety, beneficial effect on the risk of coronary events and impairment оf renal function, whereas once a day dosing of rivaroxaban improves the compliance with this treatment and its constancy.

Abstract:
Objective. To systematically assess the safety and efficacy of olanzapine versus clozapine when treating senile dementia and to provide evidence-based medicine basis for its promotion and use. Methods. PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Library, China Knowledge Network Database (CNKI), China VIP Database, Wanfang Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database (CBM) online database were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) of olanzapine and clozapine when treating senile dementia. The retrieval time limit is from the establishment of the database to the present. The data were extracted independently by two researchers, and the bias risk of each contained literature was analyzed in accordance with the standard of Cochrane Handbook 5.3. RevMan 5.4 statistical software was used to analyze the collected data by meta-analysis. Results. Finally, 6 randomized controlled trial articles were included, with a total of 490 samples. Meta-analysis of clinical efficacy showed that the clinical efficacy was similar and there was no significant difference ( P > 0.05 ). Two articles used Alzheimer’s disease pathological behavior rating scale (BEHAVE-AD) to compare the pathological behavior of different stages after treatment. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the total score of BEHAVE-AD and the scores of each factor in each week after treatment. The non-treatment adverse reaction scale (TESS) of the study group and the control group was analyzed by meta-analysis. The TESS score of the study group after treatment was significantly lower than that of the control group. The BPRS scores of different stages after treatment were analyzed by meta-analysis, and there was no significant difference in the total score and factor scores of BPRS in each week after treatment. Two clinical trials reported the incidence of neurological symptoms after treatment. Olanzapine and clozapine treatment can effectively reduce the risk of aging. There was no significant difference in the incidence of neurological symptoms in patients with dementia ( P > 0.05 ). According to the analysis of meat products, the incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. Olanzapine and clozapine have similar efficacy when treating mental and behavioral disorders in patients with senile dementia, in which olanzapine is more effective in improving the symptoms of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), with less adverse reactions and high safety, which is worth popularizing in clinical practice. However, more studies and follow-up with higher methodological quality and longer intervention time are needed to further verify.

Abstract:
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that starts slowly, progressively leads to death and contributes to about 60-70% cases of dementia. AD is characterized with Senile Plaques (SPs) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and the major symptoms include problems with language, dis-orientation of words, unable to manage self-care, memory loss and behavioural issues which gradually lead to completely lose bodily functions later. The actual cause for the disease is not known till date. Recent research show distinct paths that closely try to reveal various cytoplasmic, genetic, behavioural, environmental and epigenetic causes that may lead to the development of AD. Most likely all studies target the Senile Plaques, protein fragments called beta-amyloid and Neurofibrillary Tangles, twisted fibres of a protein called tau. Since, the exact causative mechanism is not yet clearly understood, ultimately finding a suitable treatment or management for the disease has also become an ominous challenge for researchers.Keywords: Alzheimer’s disease, Pathology, Phosphatase and tensin, Senile plaques, Neurofibrillary tangles

Abstract:
Cognitive impairment refers to frequent disorders in the elderly and senile, and their prevalence increases with age significantly. Non-dementia cognitive disorders mean a spectrum of changes in the cognitive sphere that precede the development of dementia over the course of many months and even years. Mild forms of cognitive impairment (MCI) are the most studied type of pre-dementia conditions, which in most cases represent a prodromal stage of disorders progressing over time to a dementia syndrome. Early identification of individuals with MCI is important because timely diagnosis of these disorders is expanding the potential impact of the secondary prevention and therapeutic intervention, which can delay or even prevent the onset of professional and social maladaptation due to development of dementia. The article considers the historical issues of studying these disorders, presents the modern principles of their classification and diagnostic criteria. A clinical observation of a patient with a polyfunctional non-amnestic type MCI syndrome is provided. The features of cognitive disorders typical for chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency, such as mental retardation, impaired activity arrangement, difficulties with generalisation in relative preservation of memory and orientation in combination with emotional and affective disorders are described. The authors discuss issues of treatment of MCI syndrome, which should be comprehensive and include the correction of all vascular risk factors, non-drug (regular physical activity, cognitive training) and pharmacological treatments aimed at improving cognitive performance. The article describes the possibilities of modern neuroprotective and symptomatic therapy of cognitive impairment, showing the role of choline alfoscerate in the treatment of MCI.

Abstract:
Dementia is a growing public health problem, which may be under-recognised and poorly managed in regional hospitals. With projections of increasing dementia among older adults in regional and rural areas, knowledge about dementia and capacity of professionals to provide best-evidence care is paramount. This research investigates the challenges of dementia care in a publicly funded regional hospital in Australia. The study elucidates prevalence of dementia-related admissions, costs of treatment, length of stay and capacity for dementia care. A mixed methodology was employed in this study, including analysis of hospital records (N = 2405), dementia knowledge surveys (n = 50) and semi-structured interviews with clinical staff (n = 13). Hospital records showed that dementia-related admissions were lower than population prevalence reported in regional Australia. Dementia patients, however, attracted significantly higher treatment costs and greater length of stay than age-matched admissions who did not have a diagnosis of dementia. Clinicians reported several obstacles to effective dementia care, including staff knowledge deficits, environmental challenges, resource constraints and organisational factors.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The illustrious Colombian Professor Salomón Hakim provided the annals of neurology with one of the most brilliant and original bodies of research on record, developing the concept of normal pressure hydrocephalus, as well as proving that ventricular shunting is an effective treatment. Thus, Professor Hakim proved that some of the dementias, at that time considered senile, could be successfully treated. Here the authors present an historical review of his main contributions, which continue to influence the study of dementia to this day.

Abstract:
Background: сognitive impairment and late depression, along with dementia, are the most common mental disorders in elderly and senile patients. Currently, more and more attention is being paid to preventive therapeutic approaches in the treatment of these conditions and to the study of drugs with multimodal neuroprotective and neurotrophic properties that contribute to the strengthening of the so-called endogenous system of protection and recovery of the brain, which is a kind of barrier to the incipient neurodegeneration. Objective: to present a review of domestic and foreign modern studies devoted to the study of the multimodal effects of the drug cerebrolysin, which has neurotrophin-like properties, and the results of its use in the treatment of cognitive disorders that do not reach the degree of dementia, as well as late depression. Material and methods: using the keywords “late age, mild cognitive disorders, depression, MCI syndrome, therapy, cerebrolysin”, we searched for scientifi c articles in the MEDLINE and PubMed databases for the period 2000–2020. Conclusion: the data presented in the review showed that cerebrolysin, acting as a multi-target drug, affects multiple molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of pre-dementia cognitive disorders and late-age depression. The drug detects a neurotrophin-like effect, improves the processes of neuroplasticity and can help enhance the protection and restoration of the brain under various pathological infl uences. Neurobiological studies and the results of a pilot prospective study indicate the preventive potential of cerebrolysin in preventing the development or slowing the progression of the neurodegenerative process of Alzheimer’s type. In the studies presented in the review, the ability of cerebrolysin to increase the effectiveness of modern antidepressant therapy (with second-generation drugs) in the elderly has been shown, presumably by potentiating the therapeutic effect of antidepressants or by improving their tolerability, which makes it possible to safely use higher doses of antidepressants in the elderly and senile patients.
