  1. Longer Life, Better Life ——Current research progress on Alzheimer Disease The third group 陈昊

  2. 21st century--time for the aged Number of the aged is so huge! 0.7 billion is the old! Almost 1 in 10 on the world is over 60! VS October 31st, 2011 7 billion people on the world?

  3. Aging is everywhere 4-5 times increasing in 50 years, just like a rocket! What about China? The pace is faster. Number of the aged (current and predicted) of some continent

  4. The Result: Enjoy a longer life CIA World Fact book 2007 : Over 100 nations or regions enjoy the life expectancy over 70! ? Quality of life? Life expectancy worldwide on 2007 From Wikipedia

  5. Living quality---A better life as well? The tragedy of aging: Economic influence Aging is good or not? This is a question. Social problems Health and diseases

  6. Diseases of the aged The position of Alzheimer When we become old…… Stroke CHF diabetes Aged diseases Cancer Neurodegenerative disease hypertension Alzheimer

  7. 1 The characters of Alzheimer 2 Alzheimer----the killer of life quality 3 Research on Mechanism of Alzheimer 4 Current drug and therapy 5 Can Alzheimer be prevented? Contents Fight against Alzheimer!

  8. 1 Alzheimer--- four stages characters Severe Early Middle Final • slow, progressive loss of intellectual ability • difficulty learning • mild depression • cannot speak or walk, even breathe • has profound memory loss • an increase in memory loss • Decrease losing of daily living ability • unable to recognize objects and family members Buckley LL; Schub T; Pravikoff D; Quick lessons about Alzheimer Disease. Cinahl Information Systems, 2011 Sep 30

  9. Epidemiology from a point: a large market in AD therapy • Drugs for AD have a large market. • AD is very popular in the aged.
