The word ‘dementia’ describes a set of symptoms include memory loss and difficulties with thinking or reasoning that reduce a person ability to perform everyday activities. Dementia is mainly caused when the brain is damaged by diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease or a series of strokes. This disease mainly affects people over the age of 65 and the likelihood of developing dementia increases significantly with age. However, dementia can affect younger people too.

Euro Dementia 2018 is focussing on various researches, to develop technologies to help people with dementia live as well as they can, for as long as they can. This research is crucial for the hope of a cure and for improvements in treatments and care. Through this Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia meeting, it will offer an extraordinary open door for members, agents ecumenically to meet, arrange, and see nascent logical connections for well suited adjust in life.

The conference includes following scientific sessions:

Dementia is a general term that describes a group of symptoms-such as decline in mental capability, judgment, language, complex motor skills, and other intellectual function-caused by brain damage from cerebrovascular, death of the brain's nerve cells, or neurons. Dementia may be caused by a number of factors, such as drug abuse, alcoholism, brain injury, side effects to certain medications, thyroid function abnormalities, vitamin B12 deficiency, etc.

Dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease, is one of the biggest global public health challenges and disorder facing our generation. Vascular dementia is the second most common cause of dementia caused by brain damage.

From recent reports, markets for Alzheimer’s treatments exist with the development of some therapeutic methods and the increasing incidence of the disease. The increasing incidence of Alzheimer’s disease is mainly attributed to the growing number of people over the age of 65. Although some instances of young-onset have occurred, this is defined as Alzheimer’s symptoms in people under the age of 65. Alzheimer’s disease is estimated to affect up to 6% of the population over 65.

The global report for Alzheimer’s disease reached $10.2 billion in 2012 and still increasing. The global market for AD therapeutics and diagnostics by region should reach over $6.2 billion by 2020 from $4.4 billion in 2015, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% from 2015 to 2020.

Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2014, 2015 and 2016, and projections of CAGRs through 2021 has covered different types of tests, including esoteric, public health, anatomic technology, genomic testing, mass spectrophotometry, and other new technologies.

From an overview of the global market for laboratory-developed testing found that laboratory tests reached nearly $9.7 billion in 2015. This market is expected to increase from nearly $11.0 billion in 2016 to $14.9 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3% for 2016-2021. 

 

Effects of Dementia at Vienna

Dementia predominantly occurs in older people and, in view of the current demographic trend, has become a major issue for society and health policy.  Currently around 130,000 people in Austria are suffering from some form of dementia and experts estimate that this number will double by 2050. Accounting for around 60 – 80% of cases, Alzheimer's disease is by far the most common form of dementia.

The City of Vienna guarantees its residents safety and the highest quality of life – this is especially true for the elderly and those in need of care. Since May 2017, MedUni Vienna has been participating in the European MEMENTO project, dedicated to the development of technical solutions to help sufferers and their relatives cope with forgetfulness on a day-to-day basis.

MEMENTO (Memory and Moments collected) is a joint project being conducted by eight centres in Austria, Italy and Spain. The MEMENTO programme is organized to help by reminding patients with mild dementia of everyday events, situations and places and help them to retain new information.
