Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>Psychiatric researchers have warned that stress, depression and fatigue at middle age can increase the risk of men suffering senile dementia later on in life.<\/p>\n

The study, published by the American Medical Association’s journal JAMA Network Open, found that “through careful modelling, we established a connection between symptoms associated with mental distress and an organic brain disease.”<\/p>\n

Data from the study showed that “psychological distress symptoms were significantly associated with increased risk of all-cause dementia.” But the experts stressed that the correlation between mid-life depression and exhaustion and dementia in old age was only seen in men.<\/p>\n

Senile dementia is characterised by disruption of thought patterns, confusion and loss of memory \u2014 for instance about classified government documents in one’s garage.<\/p>\n
