A recent study finds that difficulty navigating while moving and walking may reveal early indications of Alzheimer’s. A long-standing and unique study has found that difficulty
walking or not walking correctly is one of the early symptoms of dementia
disease “Alzheimer”. Alzheimer's disease is usually caused by an increase in
the protein 'amyloid beta' in the blood plasma,
and this protein sometimes begins to increase as early as a decade. Although
there is no proven cure for this disease, medical experts differ. Attempts are
made to reduce its severity through medication and exercise. Affects The
Brain This disease affects the brain, and memory loss, it mostly
affects the elderly but people of any age can get this disease and as mentioned
it is incurable if it is diagnosed in the early stages. Holding helps to avoid
this. Its early symptoms
include not being able to recognize words, not being able to plan, not being
able to solve problems, not remembering places and places, not being able to
reach the destination despite being guided, and other similar symptoms
including memory loss. Current
Biology Now, research conducted by experts has shown that in fact,
difficulty in walking in elderly people can also be an early sign
of this disease. According to the research published in the medical journal “Current
Biology”, experts studied frailty and young people with difficulty walking or
inability to determine their destination and included mostly female volunteers.
The study also included
some volunteers who had memory problems and confirmed early Alzheimer's
symptoms. Middle Aged
People During the research, the experts asked all men and women,
old and young people to perform different tasks and then tested their way of
completing the tasks. The experts gave the volunteers tasks to walk and reach
and determine
the destination and then compared their results. The results showed that people
who were diagnosed with early signs of Alzheimer's or who had poor memory were
able to walk. I faced difficulties while they were hesitant even in determining
the destination, including some middle-aged people. Signs of
Alzheimer's Similarly, some healthy volunteers were found to have
difficulty in walking and they also seemed to suffer from hesitancy in
determining the destination, while some individuals did not experience any
problem. According to experts,
healthy people who had difficulty walking or had difficulty determining their
destination also had memory loss and further research showed early signs of
Alzheimer's. The experts concluded that difficulty walking or finding a
destination in the frail, meaning people over 60, could be an early sign of
Alzheimer's, but experts called for more research.
