Difference (from prior major revision) (minor diff, author diff)

Changed: 1c1
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) or senile dementia? of Alzheimer's type is a disorder of loss of mental functions resulting from brain tissue changes of cause that are yet to be elucidated (at least two genes predisposing to AD have been identified). The main characteristic of AD is [memory loss]?. Alzheimer's disease is also manifested in behavorial changes, like sudden periods of defiance, abusive behavior, violence, etc. in people who have no previous history of such behavior (rarely, an affected person experiences euphoria). Thus, Alzheimer's disease presents a problem in patient management, as well. The symptoms of the disease were first identified by Alois Alzheimer in 1906.
