CNS Drugs 24: 729–739 Healthcare Capstone Project Example BibliographyThe article by
Ballard and Corbett advises patients on daily activities they could perform to improve the
quality of their lives. First, it recommends regular exercises, which help stimulate the
brain’s ability to make and maintain connections. The patients may start an exercise
program to help make it a constant thing in their lives. Human beings being social creatures,
the article advises the patients to engage in more social networks. They may engage in
activities where they can connect to more people and share their experiences.A healthy diet
is also emphasized for the patients, where they are advised to cut down on sugar, and
processed foods will help reduce the symptoms. Omega-3 fats are suggested to protect the
brain from further and faster damage. Vegetables and fruits are highly recommended for
the patients as many produce useful antioxidants that help enhance the lives of the affected
patients.Dodel R., Neff F., Noelker C., Paul R., Du Y., & Bacher M., et al. (2010) Treatments for
Alzheimer’s disease: rationale and current evidence Drugs 70: 513–528The report indicates
how people with unconventional AD could consume cholinesterase inhibitors as they can
help cure some symptoms experienced by the affected individuals. It suggests Exelon,
Aricept, and Reminyl be among the drugs to help them improve their communication
memory and thinking skills. The individuals are also advised to daily consume the
Memantine drug in addition to the cholinesterase medicines that helps enable the brain
cells and nerve cells to communicate with each other.Physiotherapy is highly recommended
for the patients, together with daily exercise. Eating healthy is also a suggested way the
individuals can better the quality of their lives. As for those who smoke, they are advised to
quit and engage in more useful therapy to enhance their mental capacity. The report
suggests that daily rehabilitation of the patients could significantly reduce their symptoms
as it would help them focus more and overcome other personal challenges. Using coconut
oil is also suggested to the patients to improve their memory.Galimberti D. & Scarpini E.
(2011) Disease-modifying treatments for Alzheimer’s disease Ther Adv Neurol Disord 4:
203–216The article starts by acknowledging that once an individual begins experiencing
signs of Alzheimer’s disease, there are no many available treatments to reverse the
situation. It emphasizes on patients talking thoroughly with their doctor on their health
status and available therapy for them. The article talks of how drugs that prevent the

2. breakdown of acetylcholine, a brain chemical, may help slow down the symptoms of AD.
The compound is said to be necessary for learning and memory.It suggests the Aricept drug
for patients with unconventional Alzheimer’s disease while suggesting other medicines like
Razadyne, Exelon, namzaric, and memantine to moderate the symptoms. The article gives
importance to caregivers and family members to be involved when choosing appropriate
therapy for AD patients.ORDER HERE FOR ORIGINAL, PLAGIARISM-FREE
PAPERSHerrmann N., Chau S., Kircanski I., & Lanctôt K. (2011) Current and emerging drug
treatment options for Alzheimer’s disease: a systematic review Drugs 71: 2031–2065The
article talks of how self-reporting is the leading way the patients suffering from AD are
diagnosed with imaging and laboratory tests helping to characterize the sickness better.
The articles describe how tests such as those of reflexes, coordination, muscle strength, and
balance are all done to assess the health of the specific individuals. Mental tests are also
done to the patients to determine their mental status, including their thinking and memory
skills.The article talks of how imaging of brain structures is done to pinpoint available
abnormalities. It talks of how future research is focused on developing more tests that could
measure the disease processes in the brain and provide biological evidence. Healthcare

Preziosi P. (2011) Pharmacologists and Alzheimer disease therapy: to boldly go where no
scientist has gone before Expert Opin Investig Drugs 20: 1243–1261The report tries to
research the available alternative treatments for Alzheimer’s disease, focusing on their
effectiveness and safety to the individuals using them. It goes further in recommending
various treatments for the affected patients, which the FDA could officially approve.
Patients suffering from AD are suggested to take caprylic acid and coconut oil, which
provide an alternative energy source for the patients.Taking a dosage of Coenzyme Q10 was
also claimed to help the patients in their normal body cell reactions while coral calcium
supplements are also suggested to a better quality of the patient’s life. The report suggests
the individuals use Ginkgo biloba and Huperzine A, which are said to alleviate cognitive
symptoms, and both are hail from the Chinese traditional medicines. Consumption of
omega-3 fatty acids is also suggested as a way for the patients to reduce the risks of heart
diseases. Phosphatidylserine and Tramiprosate available in certain foods are stated to help
protect cells from degenerating.Metcalf, E. (2018, January 28) Alzheimer’s Care: 6 Tips to
improve Daily Life WebMDThe article by Eric suggests activities that the patients who have
Alzheimer’s disease could perform to feel calm and safe as the illness could make them
confused and frustrated easily. It indicates that the patients set a schedule and keep to the
routine. IT suggests the patients leave notes to remind them of their plan or any changes
that will be needed in the method. Caregivers and family members are also advised to help
them write and leave notes behind to guide them.Patients are also advised to limit the
amount of sound and movement, especially going to crowdy places. It is suggested they
gather in small groups and keep off the television while doing other activities to help
improve their ability to focus on one thing without forgetting. The report suggests that they
find familiar hobbies and tasks that could help them feel happy and productive. Such would
help them also reduce the symptoms of the disease.Park, A. (2018, February 15)
Alzheimer’s New Hope TimePark in the article narrates a story of Wooding and her husband

3. Peter, a patient of severing AD. The article talks of how Wooding hopes that each time
Wooding takes a drip, that it would be the perfect drug to help enhance her husband’s life.
In the article, Peter is among 2,700 more people who are volunteering for a new drug test.
The 77-year-old man is said to have severe symptoms of the disease, including dementia,
memory loss, and confusion, but the drug test is claimed to help better their lives. The
article claims that Peter volunteered as he had better chances to combat the changes in his
brain from getting worse.Alice, in the article, talks of how age is the most significant risk
factor of the disease with genes also contributing a higher risk of getting the illness. The
article goes ahead and discusses how 100 years after the diagnosis of the disease, scientists
are yet to discover any effective treatments. It states that it is difficult since targeting a
specific thing in the brain without interfering with daily network activities is a risky and
challenging task. It suggests using the aducanumab drug that slowly reduced thinking and
memory skills.Sperling R., Aisen P., Beckett L., Bennett D., Craft S., & Fagan A., et al. (2011)
Toward defining the preclinical stages of Alzheimer’s disease: recommendations from the
National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer’s Association workgroups on diagnostic guidelines
for Alzheimer’s disease Alzheimers Dement 7: 280–292The report gives an outline of how
degenerative brain disorder destroys neurons and brain cells that connect, resulting from
declining in mental, behavioral, and memory capabilities. Providing a clear indication that
there exists no cure for Alzheimer’s disease, the research recommends ways in which the
affected persons can create a better quality of life for themselves. The study proposes that
individuals living with unconventional AD consume a lot of fatty acids, including Omega-3,
which helps reduce cognitive impairment. Coconut oil was also suggested for those affected
as it improves their memory performance. Coral Calcium and Coenzyme Q10 are mentioned
in the report that states they are alternative treatments for the unconventional AD.It
suggests acupuncture therapy for the patients stating it can improve their energy and mood
levels and, most importantly, improve their cognitive function while aromatherapy was
proposed to enhance their well-being. The report is whoever clear that the alternative
treatments are not a way to cure the disease but are methods to help improve their
lives.Wegerer, J. (2013, December 5) 4 Alternatives Treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease
alzheimers.netJennifer, in the article, suggests that traditional medicine used to treat
diabetes and high blood pressure could also be used to lessen symptoms of Alzheimer’s
disease. The treatments, as stated in the article, helpful in treating cognitive symptoms such
as confusion, judgment, and language problems and memory loss. It is because they target
to destroy plaques in the brain cells made up of protein fragments that build up to cause AD.
According to the article, the suggested option only help delay the progress of the disease for
some time but does not stop the brain cells from deteriorating.The medicines are stated to
help lower blood pressure while simulating the natural insulin production and in the
process, prevent the filling of beta-amyloids on the brain cells. As for arthritis drugs, the
author suggests that drugs help reduce inflammation in the bodies of the affected
individuals. The article suggests that those suffering from AD could also take cholesterol
medicines that lower the risks of dementia.Healthcare Capstone Project Example
