Current thinking is that the diagnosis and, therefore, the treatment of Alzheimer's should be physiologically based since Alzheimer's truly is a physiological disease rather than just a given of 'old age.'

The Effects Of Alzheimer's Disease On Brain Structure
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page research paper on the physical changes observed in the brain cells of Alzheimer's Disease patients. Early in the century, pathologist Louis Alzheimer first discovered and described the neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques consistent with the presence of the disease. For all the research into the causes of Alzheimer's, microscopic examination at autopsy remains the definitive diagnosis tool. The paper presents descriptions of both neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques along with popular theories of their formations and possible physiological treatments. As it is though, researchers only know the two conditions are part of the disease. Whether they are caused by Alzheimer's or Alzheimer's causes them is still unknown. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
