Researchers Draw Attention to the Risk Profile Associated with Dementia

A study led by Professor Rui Araújo from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Porto, published in the Sinapse journal, identified warning signs for dementia in people over 76 years old, highlighting that apathy and the behavior of systematically looking at a family member or caregiver during medical appointments are concerning indicators. The research, conducted with patients from Neurology consultations in northern Portugal, revealed that many with cognitive complaints did not have prior psychiatric diseases, but still showed concerning results in cognitive tests. Araújo emphasized that early detection is crucial to allow for adequate diagnoses and interventions that preserve patients' autonomy, also recommending regular physical exercise, healthy eating, and cognitive activities to delay the progression of dementia. It is estimated that approximately 160,000 people over 60 years old in Portugal suffer from some type of dementia, mainly Alzheimer's disease.
