Abstract

|
|
Objectives: Alzheimer’s Dementia is somewhat common in clinical stages, and there are many reports and papers regarding this subject. We explain the present state of Alzheimer’s Dementia in JON (The Journal of Oriental Neuropsychiatry) for the benefits of clinical practice.
Methods: We searched for articles in JON from 1990 to 2014 and selected ones that were related to Alzheimer’s Dementia; then, we analyzed the data and placed it in four categories, like experimental study, case study, Clinical Data-Analysis study, and clinical trial.
Results: 1) We found 47 articles relating to Alzheimer’s Dementia in JON from 1997 to 2014: 41 experimental studies, 1 case study, 1 Clinical Data-Analysis study, and 4 Clinical trials. 2) There were Chung-kyung Acupuncture Method, Auricular acupuncture, and Cha-rak Acupuncture Method to treat Alzheimer’s Dementia. 3) There were many additional treatments, like aroma therapy. 4) In the experimental study, they reported on several herbs, including herbal prescriptions that affected the suppression of related mRNAs and genes. 5) There were 4 clinical trials regarding herbal prescription that was effective for treating Alzheimer’s Dementia.
Conclusions: In JON, regarding Alzheimer’s Dementia, the majority dealt with experimental studies. Therefore, we also have to expand our sight into other fields of study. We need more clinical trials and case studies for the treatment of Alzheimer’s Dementia in Oriental Neuropsychiatry.
