TERRADO QUEVEDO, Sara Pura et al. Alzheimer's disease, some modifiable risk factors. Rev. inf. cient. [online]. 2018, vol.97, n.5, pp. 1031-1042. ISSN 1028-9933.

Introduction:

dementia is a disorder of cognition that interferes with the functioning of daily life and produces a loss of independence. Its prevalence and incidence increase with advanced age. An updated bibliographical review was carried out, which consisted of a search of specialized journals on the subject, works in Spanish and English were reviewed, and investigations of diverse design by prestigious authors on the subject were included.

Objective:

to update the available evidence on the modifiable risk factors associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Development:

in recent decades, epidemiological studies reveal several risk factors for the development of this entity, among which appear the factors related to lifestyle. Population strategies for modifying these factors could potentially prevent some cases of Alzheimer's.

Conclusions:

Population strategies must include a global effort involving the supposedly healthy population, health professionals, and the community, to modify the way and style of life directed to the modifiable factors, so that they contribute to the knowledge of the disease to its management and the delay of its appearance.

Palavras-chave : Alzheimer's; modifiable risk; population strategy.
