About Conference

We Welcome you for 18^th  World Summit on Alzheimer’s Disease, Dementia Care Research and Awareness which is going to be held on July 31-August 01, 2023 Rome, Italy

The Alzheimer’s disease is currently ranked as the sixth leading cause of death in the United States, but recent estimates indicate that the disorder may rank third, just behind heart disease and cancer, as a cause of death for older people.

Alzheimer’s is the most common cause of dementia among older adults. Dementia is the loss of cognitive functioning—thinking, remembering, and reasoning—and behavioral abilities to such an extent that it interferes with a person’s daily life and activities. Dementia ranges in severity from the mildest stage, when it is just beginning to affect a person’s functioning, to the most severe stage, when the person must depend completely on others for basic activities of daily living.

The causes of dementia can vary, depending on the types of brain changes that may be taking place. Other dementias include Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal disorders, and vascular dementia. It is common for people to have mixed dementia—a combination of two or more types of dementia. For example, some people have both Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.

Alzheimer’s disease is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer. In 1906, Dr. Alzheimer noticed changes in the brain tissue of a woman who had died of an unusual mental illness. Her symptoms included memory loss, language problems, and unpredictable behavior. After she died, he examined her brain and found many abnormal clumps (now called amyloid plaques) and tangled bundles of fibers (now called neurofibrillary, or tau, tangles).

These plaques and tangles in the brain are still considered some of the main features of Alzheimer’s disease. Another feature is the loss of connections between nerve cells (neurons) in the brain. Neurons transmit messages between different parts of the brain, and from the brain to muscles and organs in the body.

Session / Tracks

Session on Alzheimer’s Disease Causes, Diagnosis and Prevention

Alzheimer's can be defined as a gradually progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized of memory impairment and subsequent disturbances in personality, mood, reasoning and perception. It caused by a combination of lifestyle, genetic, and environmental factors that gradually impairs the brain.

It can be diagnosed by evaluating subject’s medical history, testing mental and mood status (NINCDS-ADRDA), lab tests and brain scans. An ongoing clinical trial conducted by Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network (DIAN), is to test whether antibodies to beta-amyloid can reduce the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaque in the brains with such genetic mutations and thereby reduce, delay or prevent symptoms and it can also be impeded by choosing the diet carefully.

Session on Alzheimer’s disease Pathogenesis and mechanisms

Beta amyloid plaques and Neurofibrillary tangles of tau protein Pathology are prime suspects of neuronal cell death in Alzheimer’s it caused by accumulation of abnormally folded A-beta and tau proteins  and Plaques of small peptides 39–43 amino acids to  form Beta-amyloid which comprises amyloid precursor protein (APP) and a transmembrane protein that pierce the neuron's membrane. It later forms a fibrils of amyloid protein clump which get deposited in neurons to form a dense senile plaques, amyloid fibrils disrupts the cell’s calcium ions homeostasis and induces apoptosis of neurons which results in neurodegeneration affecting brain functioning.

Session on Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s disease

More than 400 clinical trials are presently looking at new treatments for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and many of them are actively recruiting. Many of the researches are based on decreasing the toxic effects of amyloid-beta in the brain, targeting amyloid production, blocking the accumulation of amyloid-beta into plaques, Aiming at Tau, Improving Cognition with Serotonin and Dietary Supplements.

Session on Vascular dementia

Vascular dementia is the wider term for dementia associated with brain damage from impaired blood flow to the brain. The various types of dementia are Single-infarct, Multi-infarct dementia, Subcortical vascular dementia (Binswanger's disease), and Mixed dementia. Its clinical symptoms are Problems with planning or organising, concentrating, including short periods of sudden confusion and Memory, language and visuospatial skills also get affected.

Anyone can be affected by Vascular dementia, but several factors increase the risk. These include: High blood pressure, Smoking, Diabetes, High cholesterol, History of mild warning strokes, Evidence of disease in arteries elsewhere and Heart rhythm abnormalities, while no remedy can reverse the damage that has already been occurred, treatment to prevent extra strokes may be very essential.

Session on Ageing and Gerontology

Gerontology is scientific study of aging process and concerned with physical, mental, and social aspects and implications of aging. The field of gerontology is actually quite broader, containing many professionals who focus on different aspects of aging and development.

Gerontologists include practitioners and researchers in the areas fields of nursing, medicine, criminology, biology, social work, physical and occupational therapy, psychology, sociology, psychiatry, dentistry, economics, political science, architecture, geography, pharmacy, public health, housing, and anthropology. There are several theories of aging but none has been accepted.

 Session on Geriatrics Care Practice and Awareness Neuroscience

Geriatric health care practice also known as "elder care health management, it is a process of planning and coordinating care of the old aged individuals and others with physical and/or mental abilities to meet their long term care needs, enhance their quality of life, and carried their independence for as long as possible. It involves in working with persons of old age and their families in managing, rendering and furnishing various types of health and social care services.

Awareness is attention plus working memory, and Awareness has a quite specific definition, Neural systems that controls and regulate to attenuate awareness in humans whose central and peripheral nervous system provides more instructions than cognitive sites in the brain can assimilate.

Session on Cognitive Neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence

Cognitive neuroscience is scientific study of neural mechanisms which connects cognitive psychology, neurobiology, neurology, mathematics, physics, linguistics, philosophy and computer science, as well as artificial intelligence, which includes psychophysical experiments, electrophysiological studies of neural systems, functional neuroimaging, and increasingly  cognitive genomics and behavioural genetics.Artificial Intelligence (AI) entails the study of cognitive phenomena in machines one of the realistic desires of artificial intelligence is to put aspects of human intelligence in computer systems. 

Session on Neurodegeneration and Genetics

Neurodegeneration marked by gradual loss of neuronal structure and its functions, including death of neurons, The most common neurodegenerative diseases are Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Degenerative nerve diseases have an effect on many of your body's activities, which includes balance, movement, talking, respiration, and coronary heart function, many of these diseases are genetic, sometimes the reason is a scientific condition which include alcoholism, a tumour, or a stroke, other reasons can also include pollution, chemicals, and viruses, sometimes the purpose is not known.

Session on Neuro-immunology

Neuro-immunology is a vast branch of science that combines the nervous system and immune system together. This field assist in regulating thermogenesis, behavior, sleep, and mood which can be tormented by pro-inflammatory cytokines released by means of activated macrophages and monocytes throughout infection. Neuroinflammation and neuroimmune activation were shown to play a role in the aetiology of a variety of neurological problems which includes stroke, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis,https://alzheimers.global-summit.com/ pain, and AIDS-related dementia, however  cytokines and chemokines also modulate CNS function in the absence of overt immunological, physiological, or mental challenges.

Session on Movement disorders

Movement disorders refers to a group of nervous system characterized of movement disorders are clinical syndromes with both an excess of motion or a paucity of voluntary and involuntary actions. Individuals with a motion disorder suffer from a breakdown in the normal flow of neurological messages and this result in involuntary muscle motion. Common types of movement disorders are Ataxia, Cervical dystonia, Chorea, Dystonia, Functional movement disorder, Multiple system atrophy, Myoclonus, Progressive supranuclear palsy, Restless legs syndrome, Tardive dyskinesia, Tourette syndrome, Tremor and Wilson's disease.

The major duty of a psychiatric nurse is to maintain a healthy and positive therapeutic relationship with patients and direct communication is necessary for developing it.

Session on Dementia Care Practice and Research

Dementia is a chronic condition of the mental health caused by brain disease or injury marked by memory inabilities, personality impairments, and impaired reasoning. Dementia care practice is a process optimizing patient’s quality of life, functional independence, health, and wellbeing, all of whom may additionally struggle physically, emotionally, and financially from their diverse relationships to the sickness.

Session on Neurology Palliative Care

The importance of palliative care extends far past ‘end-of-lifestyles treatment for most cancers sufferers, There are some of crucial regions for palliative care exactly in neurology and a regularly developing call for it – now not least because of ever higher lifestyles expectancy charges worldwide.

Example of patients with glioblastoma with this progressive disorder, the need for palliative care constantly will increase. It’s far tough to mention for sure the factor in time at which palliative care need so be initiated, experience shows that factors of palliative medicinal drug are employed and primarily, organized early on in the path of the disorder, even at some point of oncological treatment.

Session on Neuro stroke

A stroke or cerebrovascular accident is the unexpectedly growing loss of brain functions because of disturbance in the blood supply to the brain, caused by a blocked or burst blood vessel. In emergency conditions neurological damage get worsened which may results in bleeding (haemorrhagic strokes) and death. The strokes like ischemic stroke, thrombotic stroke, haemorrhagic stroke, intracerebral haemorrhage and subarachnoid haemorrhage are the various types of neuro strokes.

Symptoms includes sudden onset of numbness, weakness, confusion, difficulty speaking, vision loss, dizziness, imbalance and severe headache. It can be prevented by monitoring diet, regulating blood pressure and diabetes levels, physical work out and quitting smoking.

Session on Mood disorders

Mood disorders are a set of illnesses that presents a serious change in mood. The major categories are Depression and Bipolar disorders. The subject may experience euphoric, mania, hyperactive, over inflated ego, persistent depressive disorder and seasonal depressive disorders. The Psychiatric Disorders and Mood Disorders is interlinked in its nature it means that the subject with psychiatric disorders has a chance of developing Depression. The other mood disorders are Cyclothymic disorder, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, Persistent depressive disorder (dysthymia), Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder and Depression induced by substance use or medication.
