A Study on the Influence of Cysteine and Magnesium Ions on Brain Dementia

Abstract:

As the population ages, dementia disease is increasingly becoming the most concerned social problems. According to the cause of dementia, it can be divided into many kinds class, among them with Alzheimer's Disease (Alzheimers diseases, AD) and Vascular Dementia (Vascular Dementia, VD) are common. Data shows it accounts for nearly 60% of total AD dementia patients, VD (20%), but only 2% of patients could get timely diagnosis and treatment, make its cognitive damage to a certain extent suppress and improve. for untimely diagnosis and treatment, most patients makes the disease development worse. In recent years, studies have shown that plasma Homocysteine,Hcy levels associated with AD. And studies show that from the power of the risk factors to the mechanism analysis, dementia disease level correlation with magnesium ions. On this basis, this study of plasma homocysteine in patients with AD,VD and magnesium ion detection results were analyzed retrospectively. Discuss their levels between the distributio relationship of patients ages in AD and VD.
