The researchers also used PET scans to image participants' brains. It turned out that people with bigger subjective concerns about their mental sharpness had a higher level of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain.

22nd July, 2013 USA (http://www.royalpharmacyrx.com/) : According to a new study older adults who notice new problems with balancing the checkbook or reading the newspaper may be at increased risk of dementia. The research suggests that older adults' concerns about their memory could serve as an early warning sign of future dementia.

It has not been clear whether people's subjective perceptions of memory slips are a reliable predictor of more-severe problems down the road. Older adults who moan of memory issues, but test "normal" on standard cognitive (thinking) tests have been dismissed as worried well.

The study included 131 adults whose age on an average was 73 years and had ordinary scores on formal tests of memory and thinking. To gain the participants' subjective understandings, the researchers gave them a separate, detailed questionnaire. The older adults were then asked to rate any problems they had with everyday tasks, like recollecting things they've just read or been told. They were also asked about how well they thought their mental skills measured up compared with a decade ago.

The researchers also used PET scans to image participants' brains. It turned out that people with bigger subjective concerns about their mental sharpness had a higher level of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain. Beta-amyloid buildup is deliberated as a risk factor for Alzheimer's.

Alzheimer's disease is the very common form of dementia, and the researchers estimate that if no progress is made in delaying or preventing the disease, the number of people suffering from it may increase.
