Clinical Trials & Case Reports in Dementia
The purpose of a lot of dementia research is to come up with methods for 'therapy' or even 'cure.' In dementia, the traditional bench to bedside approach has proven to be ineffective. There is a long list of prospective dementia treatment chemicals that have had promising preclinical and early phase trial results but have been found to be neutral or even detrimental in phase III investigations. Lewy body dementia is a prevalent but underdiagnosed type of dementia that is commonly confused with the more well-known Alzheimer's disease. The distinction is crucial in clinical practise because it might have significant management implications. The diagnosis of Lewy body dementia has far-reaching consequences.
