Aging and Alzheimer's disease in Down syndrome: Clinical and pathological changes

1996-01-01

Abstract excerpt

In this article, we present a clinical description of Alzheimer's disease, review extant literature regarding the prevalence of dementia of the Alzheimer's type in people with Down syndrome, and discuss the relationship between Alzheimer's-type neuropathology and Alzheimer's type dementia in people with Down syndrome. After reaching the age of 30 years, virtually all adults with Down syndrome develop beta-amyloid...
