Efficacy of acatinol memantine in mild cognitive disorder
An open 6 month clinical trial of efficacy of acatinol has been carried out in patients with mild cognitive disorder (MCD). Forty patients received acatinol and 20 patients of comparison group were treated with piracetam. Mean age of patients was 67,7+/-7,2 years. Patient’s state was assessed with a battery of scales, questionnaires and neuropsychological tests. […]

Introduction: When advanced Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients experience motor complications (fluctuations and dyskinesias) despite standard oral treatment, two treatment options are available: deep brain stimulation and subcutaneous apomorphine infusion with respects of indications for each strategy. Continuous intraduodenal infusion of levodopa (Duodopa) via a gastrojejunal tube may be proposed at this stage of the disease […]
Improved cognitive-cerebral function in older adults with chromium supplementation
Insulin resistance is implicated in the pathophysiological changes associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and pharmaceutical treatments that overcome insulin resistance improve memory function in subjects with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and early Alzheimer’s disease. Chromium (Cr) supplementation improves glucose disposal in patients with insulin resistance and diabetes. We sought to assess whether supplementation with Cr might […]

We hypothesized that the loss of initial therapeutic benefit over time may be mitigated by higher doses of a cholinesterase inhibitor.; Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness and tolerability of […]
Low-dose divalproex in agitated patients with Alzheimer’s disease
Adequate treatment of behavioral disturbances in Alzheimer’s disease is both important and difficult. This report describes a case series that examined the effectiveness and safety of low-dose divalproex in the treatment of agitated patients with Alzheimer’s disease who were admitted to an inpatient geriatric psychiatry unit over a 1-year period.
