Abstract

Dementia is a generic term that describes chronic or progressive dysfunction of cortical and subcortical functions that result in complex cognitive decline. These cognitive changes are commonly accompanied by disturbances of mood, behavior, and personality. In developed countries with an increasingly aging population, the prevalence of dementia is currently at around 1.5% at 65 years of age, which doubles every 4 years and reaches about 30% at the age of 80.
