Source text - English Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia. The word dementia describes a set of symptoms that can include memory loss and difficulties with thinking, problem-solving or language. These symptoms occur when the brain is damaged by certain diseases, including Alzheimer's disease. This factsheet describes the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease, how it is diagnosed, and the factors that can put someone at risk of developing it. It also describes the treatments and support that are currently available.
Alzheimer's disease, named after the doctor who first described it (Alois Alzheimer), is a physical disease that affects the brain. There are more than 520,000 people in the UK with Alzheimer's disease. During the course of the disease, proteins build up in the brain to form structures called 'plaques' and 'tangles'. This leads to the loss of connections between nerve cells, and eventually to the death of nerve cells and loss of brain tissue. People with Alzheimer's also have a shortage of some important chemicals in their brain. These chemical messengers help to transmit signals around the brain. When there is a shortage of them, the signals are not transmitted as effectively. As discussed below, current treatments for Alzheimer's disease can help boost the levels of chemical messengers in the brain, which can help with some of the symptoms.
Alzheimer's is a progressive disease. This means that gradually, over time, more parts of the brain are damaged. As this happens, more symptoms develop. They also become more severe.
Translation - Indonesian Penyakit Alzheimer adalah penyebab demensia yang paling umum. Demensia merupakan kumpulan gejala termasuk kehilangan daya ingat dan kesulitan berpikir, gangguan penyelesaian masalah dan bahasa. Gejala-gejala tersebut muncul apabila otak mengalami kerusakan akibat penyakit tertentu, termasuk penyakit Alzheimer. Lembar fakta ini akan menjelaskan mengenai gejala-gejala penyakit Alzheimer, cara mendiagnosanya, dan faktor-faktor yang dapat meningkatkan resiko seseorang menderita penyakit tersebut. Dan juga akan membahas mengenai penatalaksanaan dan bantuan terhadap penderita Alzheimer.
Nama penyakit Alzheimer diambil dari seorang dokter yang pertama kali menggambarkan penyakit ini (Alois Alzheimer), yaitu merupakan penyakit fisik yang mempengaruhi otak. Terdapat lebih dari 520.000 penderita Alzheimer di Inggris. Dalam perjalanan penyakitnya, protein menumpuk di otak untuk membentuk struktur yang disebut ‘plaques’ dan ‘tangles’. Hal ini menyebabkan hilangnya pertautan antara sel saraf, yang akan menyebabkan kematian sel saraf dan hilangnya jaringan otak. Penderita Alzheimer juga mengalami kekurangan bahan kimia penting pada otak. Zat kimia penghantar ini membantu menghantarkan sinyal di sekitar otak. Apabila terjadi kekurangan zat penghantar tersebut, maka sinyal tidak dapat dihantarkan secara efektif. Seperti yang akan didiskusikan di bawah ini, pengobatan Alzheimer saat ini dapat meningkatkan jumlah penghantar kimia dalam otak, yang dapat mengatasi beberapa gejala.
Alzheimer merupakan penyakit yang bersifat progresif. Ini berarti secara bertahap dan seiring berjalannya waktu, bagian otak lainnya akan mengalami kerusakan. Apabila hal ini terjadi, maka gejala lainnya akan bertambah, dan semakin berat.
