  • Title: Second thoughts on dementia. Evaluation and management of patients with mild dementia.
    Author: Reid RW, Youngs DD.
    Journal: Prim Care; 1975 Mar; 2(1):9-18. PubMed ID: 1046691.
    Abstract:
    The early recognition of dementia along with consideration of differential diagnosis and elucidation of its underlying causes is of paramount importance because many of these conditions are remediable, given proper diagnosis and adequate treatment. The purpose of this article is to emphasize possible alternatives to the grim sentence of slowly progressive irreversible deterioration of personality and intellect when the verdict of dementia is pronounced.
