These studies suggest that symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and other dementias include memory loss, cognitive decline, mood changes (such as aggression, depression, and anxiety), neuropsychiatric symptoms, and non-cognitive symptoms like gait and balance dysfunction, olfactory dysfunction, and pain.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias are progressive neurological disorders characterized by a decline in cognitive function and various neuropsychiatric symptoms. Understanding the symptoms associated with these conditions is crucial for diagnosis, management, and care.

Alzheimer's disease and other dementias are characterized by a combination of cognitive impairments, neuropsychiatric symptoms, and non-cognitive symptoms. Cognitive decline, particularly in memory and reasoning, is a primary feature, while neuropsychiatric symptoms such as agitation, apathy, and depression are also prevalent. Behavioral and psychological symptoms, including apathy and aberrant motor activity, often increase with disease severity. Non-cognitive symptoms like gait dysfunction and pain further complicate the clinical picture. Understanding these symptoms is essential for effective diagnosis and management of dementia.
