Dementia

Dementia is not one specific disease but a general term that encompasses a range of medical conditions characterised by the decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life. Alzheimer's disease accounts for 60-80% of cases, making it the most common form of dementia. Other types include vascular dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, and mixed dementia. Dementia primarily affects memory, thinking, and social abilities.
