Dementia is a progressive, irreversible illness and leading global cause of death defined by cognitive and subsequent functional decline. Current treatments have limited impact on mortality. In this chapter, we discuss the trajectory of dementia and its variability, markers associated with poorer prognosis (such as poor nutrition, pneumonia, comorbid ...

Many neurologic diseases carry a high burden of troubling symptoms, and many individuals consider health states due to neurologic disease worse than death. Many patients and families report high levels of need for information at all disease stages, including information about prognosis.

Prognosticating survival in horses with colic is challenging because of the number of diseases and pathophysiologic processes that can cause the behavior. Although the treatment of horses with colic has improved dramatically over the years, case fatality can still be high because of the delay in recognizing the problem, the time delay inherent in ...

The relative importance of factors influencing prognosis and survival in the treatment of thymoma is still controversial. Fifty-three patients operated on for thymoma from 1966 to 1990 were evaluated, 14 with myasthenia gravis and 39 without. Survival was analyzed as it related to associated disease, gross invasion by the tumor and the predominant cell

AbstractPrognostication involves formulation and communication about the expected course of the disease and is unique in surgical oncology because of the need to incorporate patient, procedural, and cancer‐related factors. Several tools and techniques are available to assist physicians in formulating prognosis on the basis of these factors.
