Memory Impairment articles

Mild memory loss and thinking problems may impact life expectancy
Cognitive impairment, especially at the moderate to severe stages has an impact on life expectancy similar to chronic conditions such as diabetes or chronic heart failure, revealed by Regenstrief Institute and Indiana University researchers in a study "Cognitive Impairment: An Independent Predictor of Excess Mortality. A Cohort Study" published in Annals of Internal Medicine.

Rheumatoid arthritis signaling protein may reverse Alzheimer's disease
A signaling protein released during rheumatoid arthritis dramatically reduced Alzheimer's disease pathology and reversed the memory impairment of mice bred to develop symptoms of the neurodegenerative disease, a new study by the University of South Florida reports.

Poor money management indicates Alzheimer's disease
New research finds poor money management skills may indicate that a person with mild memory problems will soon develop Alzheimer's disease, revealed by researchers in a new research study.

White matter changes may predict dementia risk
Elderly people with no memory or thinking problems are more likely to later develop thinking problems if they have a growing amount of "brain rust," or small areas of brain damage, revealed by researchers.

Alcohol has cognitive benefits in older adults
Moderate alcohol intake offers long-term cognitive protection and reduces the risk of dementia in older adults, revealed by researchers at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

Coffee may reverse Alzheimer's disease
Caffeine significantly decreased abnormal levels of the protein linked to Alzheimer's disease, both in the brains and in the blood of mice exhibiting symptoms of the disease, revealed by researchers.

Test your memory test for Alzheimer's disease
UK researchers at Addenbrooke's Hospital have created a new cognitive test (TYM) that detects Alzheimer's disease quickly and accurately. The study published online on BMJ.com.

Cognitive impairment linked to reduced survival in US
Alzheimer's disease and its precursor, mild cognitive impairment, appear to be associated with an increased risk of death among both white and African American older adults according to a new, long-term research study by neurological experts at the Alzheimer's Disease Center at Rush University Medical Center.

Marijuana reduces memory impairment
The more research they do, the more evidence Ohio State University scientists find that specific elements of marijuana can be good for the aging brain by reducing inflammation there and possibly even stimulating the formation of new brain cells.

Memory loss, less common in older Americans
It appears that memory loss and thinking problems are becoming less common among older Americans. A new study shows a downward trend in the rate of "cognitive impairment" - the umbrella term for everything from significant memory loss to dementia and Alzheimer's disease - among people aged 70 and older.
