摘要: Patients who had Alzheimer's disease-senile dementia of the Alzheimer type (AD/SDAT) or multi-infarct (MID) were compared with a group controls. Demented patients approximately same degree and duration illness. The MID significantly higher mean age than AD/SDAT group. Sixty-three per cent free other diseases, while 65 cardiovascular disease. Thirty history previous depression, only 5 depression. At time investigation, however, showed more signs depression patients. Focal neurologic found in 70 6 electrocardiogram was normal for every patient, 75 abnormal ECGs. Electroencephalography generalized slow frequencies 79 localized abnormalities Computed tomography brain that greater dilation ventricular system, cortical atrophy did not differ among three groups.
