Risk Factors and Biological Pathways in Alzheimer's Disease

This book provides a comprehensive exploration of Alzheimer's disease, moving beyond traditional neurology to examine its systemic origins. Beginning with an overview of brain disorders, the text investigates how Alzheimer's pathology is intricately linked to aging and infectious inflammation. A significant focus is placed on the "Diabetes" framework, detailing how insulin dysfunction and cardiovascular risks like hypertension accelerate cognitive decline. Furthermore, the research highlights the critical role of the gastrointestinal system, specifically how gut microbiota disruptions and probiotic intervention modulate central nervous system function. By connecting hepatic, metabolic, and digestive health to neurodegeneration, this work offers a multidisciplinary perspective on the biological pathways driving Alzheimer's progression.
