Circadian rhythm: from preclinical to post-diagnosis dementia
Circadian rhythm (CR) regulates body functions over the 24-hour day/night period; sleep/wake cycle is its most visible manifestation. CR disruptions have long been observed in patients with dementia and emerging evidence points to their presence in the preclinical period of dementia. This suggests that certain aspects of CR could be useful in identification of high-risk individuals and could serve as potential targets for interventions to delay dementia onset and progression. This requires an in-depth understanding of the role of CR in dementia pathogenesis. As population ageing increases dementia burden, it is critical to find strategies to identify patients at risk of dementia with…
