About This Trend
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and irreversible brain disorder that destroys memory, thinking skills, and the ability to carry out daily tasks. It is the most prevalent cause of dementia, leading to a decline in cognitive function and affecting daily life.
The disease is currently trending due to recent research findings that could reshape the future of Alzheimer's treatments, focusing on harnessing the brain's natural defenses, as well as rising concerns about the disease in various regions and high-profile cases, such as the death of actor Gene Hackman, who suffered from Alzheimer's.
