“They do not necessarily lead to Alzheimer’s disease,” what are minor neurocognitive disorders – and what can be done?

At what point should we be concerned about the presence of neurocognitive disorders?

On the contrary, the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease directly impact daily life. “Alzheimer’s disease often manifests as recent memory loss (for example, forgetting what you ate for lunch or a recent family event),” explains Dr. Maï Panchal. But it can also present itself in other ways, notably through:

• language disorders ( difficulty finding words, saying one word for another);
• problems with spatial orientation (no longer knowing how to read a map, getting lost in a roundabout);
• or even personality changes (apathy, depression, withdrawal).
