Vascular dementia is the second most prevalent type of dementia in the United States today. This article includes a review of its pathophysiology, which involves the damage of small vessels in the brain, an abundance of which are in the subcortical region, thus creating a subcategory called subcortical vascular dementia (SVD). Various diseases, such as

Vascular dementia (VaD) is a major contributor to the dementia syndrome and is described as having problems with reasoning, planning, judgment, and memory caused by impaired blood flow to the brain and damage to the blood vessels resulting from events such as stroke.

The Epidemiology of Vascular Dementia
1991The first step in the methodology of modern epidemiology is the definition of the nature of the problem [5]. In the case of vascular dementia, both the definition of the epidemiologic case and the development of adequate diagnostic criteria have been extremely difficult. This is due to several factors: First, the clinical diagnosis of dementia is not a

Subcortical vascular dementia (SVD) is a small vessel disease with dementia that exhibits relatively uniform clinical and pathological features and constitutes approximately half of vascular dementia (VaD) cases. This subtype is further classified into Binswanger's disease and multiple lacunar infarctions.

Prevention of Vascular Dementia
Alzheimer Disease & Associated Disorders, 1999Stroke is an important public health problem worldwide. Those at high risk of stroke may be at high risk of cognitive impairment and dementia after stroke. Modifiable cardiovascular risk factors in midlife including hypertension, alcohol use, cigarette smoking, and certain dietary factors may be important targets for prevention of vascular causes of ...

The Neurochemistry of Vascular Dementia
Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders, 1994Vascular dementia (VAD) is cognitive impairment caused by changes in the blood circulation of the brain. It is not synonymous with multi-infarct dementia. The latter is a subgroup of VAD. Neurochemical investigations of noninfarcted brain tissue from patients with VAD show general changes in VAD brains.

Vascular Dementia Is Underdiagnosed
Archives of Neurology, 1988Whether the vascular contribution to dementia is overdiagnosed or underdiagnosed depends on your starting point of view. Alzheimer published his articles describing the disease that now bears his name in 1902 and 1907. The classification of dementia into senile and presenile should have become extinct at the same time, because it is determined by age ...

Leukoaraiosis and vascular dementia
Neurology, 1998The emergence of sensitive techniques for brain imaging has drawn attention to the occurrence of diffuse or multifocal changes affecting the cerebral white matter. The white matter changes are usually termed periventricular leukoencephalopathy, or leukoaraiosis.

Vascular Dementia Is Overdiagnosed
Archives of Neurology, 1988There are different kinds of vascular dementia. 1 Ignoring indirect mechanisms (such as hydrocephalus following subarachnoid hemorrhage 2 ), we might hypothesize a pathophysiologic spectrum. At one end would be circumscribed intellectual impairment from destruction of particular brain areas, for example, memory loss after inferior temporal lobe ...
