“…The World Health Organization (WHO) defines dementia as a chronic or progressive syndrome characterized by deterioration of the ability to process thought, affecting cognitive function, and in particular, language, thinking, orientation, memory, calculation, comprehension and judgement [24]. It can be caused by brain injuries, its symptoms appearing from 65 years of age on, and Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is one of its most frequent forms [25]. Due to the growing elderly population in today's society, the incidence of dementia patients is expected to increase in the coming years, which will mean deployment of healthcare, social resources, and so forth, for them.…”

“…Although many cases of CC present maintenance of alertness to surroundings, patients with Lewy Body dementia may exhibit a pronounced variation in alertness and attention (28,33) , explaining the score (0.80) for "adequate alertness to surroundings." Individuals with cognitive decline usually express progression of impairment through time (7,(33)(34) . However, continuous cognitive decline is not certain (i.e., IM progresses to CC, is diagnosed with CC, or starts with IM and never progresses to CC) (28,34) .…”

“…Although memory deficit may be attributed to normal aging, specifically in areas related to attention and speed of processing (3)(4) , cognitive decline may be caused by pathological causes. Understanding potential causes of cognitive decline is important, as they interfere with the independence of people, and may cause depression, loss of autonomy, early retirement, increased health care costs, and increased mortality rates (5)(6)(7) .…”

“…A Doença de Alzheimer (DA, CID-10: G30) é a causa mais comum de demência, representando ∼ 35-80% dos casos dependendo do país (Sandoval et al, 2019;CDC, 2022;OMS, 2022), sendo que esta doença representa um sério problema de saúde pública no Brasil e no mundo, com altas taxas de mortalidade (Teixeira et al, 2015;Sandoval et al, 2019), afetando a qualidade de vida e refletindo em AVPAI (Schramm et al, 2004;GBD, 2018;Feter et al, 2021). Atualmente, no Brasil, um país com ∼ 214 milhões de habitantes, embora os dados possam ser subestimados, é reportado em ∼ 1 milhão o número de pessoas vivendo com DA, uma prevalência de ∼ 0,5% na população geral, com valores podendo saltar para até 30% em outras faixas etárias como a maior que 85 anos (Ilha et al, 2020).…”
