Track: Dementia with Lewy Body

Sub-Track:
Abnormal deposits of alpha-synuclein,
a protein associates and leads to Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). These protein
deposits are commonly called as the Lewy Bodies developing in the nerve cells
of the region of brain which is responsible for memory, thinking, reasoning and
motor control(movement). Researchers suggests that LBD is found to be accounting
for the 5 to 10 percent of dementia cases and third most cause of dementia
after Alzheimer’s and Vascular dementia. Symptoms of this mostly results in
tremors and muscle stiffness. As a being a progressive disorder, symptoms gets
worse over time. There is no complete cure and prevention for this disorder
administration of certain medication will ease the symptoms to be manageable.
