A 19-year-old man in China has been diagnosed with the neurodegenerative condition — the youngest case ever reported.
The most recent rare case is also pushing researchers to look at the “nature” of dementia in a new light, according to Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease editor-in-chief George Perry, a professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio.
“This case brings attention to the heterogeneous nature of dementia that can involve people at any age,” he told the outlet. “Significantly, this finding may separate Alzheimer’s disease from the complexity of aging and open the field to new concepts to promote innovation.”Getty Images/Science Photo Library RF
The new study on the man has prompted calls for a closer look at how Alzheimer’s could affect young people in the years to come.“[The study] proposed to pay attention to the early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Exploring the mysteries of young people with Alzheimer’s disease may become one of the most challenging scientific questions of the future,” according to the study.
