Excerpt
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is by far the most common neurocognitive disorder of aging. Affecting nearly 10% of the population over age 65 years, AD is estimated to have a prevalence of 25%–40% in individuals who are age 85 years or older (Hebert et al. 2013). Because of its slow and insidious onset, the early stages of AD can be confused with relatively benign memory impairments associated with normal aging.
