Dr. Toga said that his mother exhibited frustration and other emotional changes in her 70s, years before she developed Alzheimer’s. He believes her moods stemmed from dismay felt by his mother, a retired teacher, while trying to hide something family members had not yet noticed: “her ever decreasing cognitive capacity with words.”
托加博士表示,他的母亲是退休教师,在七十多岁时出现了挫折感以及其他情绪变化,比她最后患上阿尔茨海默氏症的时间早上好几年。他认为母亲情绪欠佳,是因为她在试图掩饰家人尚未注意到的事情,并因此感到气馁,此事就是“她对言谈的认知能力每况愈下”。
Indeed, Dr. Langa and others said, memory tests are not always able to detect early problems because some people, especially highly educated ones, may be skilled enough at taking tests that their scores do not reflect the full extent of their cognitive slippage.
兰加博士与其他学者表示,记忆测验的确不能每次都侦测到早期问题,因为有些人可能很会应付考试(尤其是那些教育程度很高的人),以至于测出来的分数无法反映出认知能力下降到何种程度。
Dr. Mary Ganguli, a professor of psychiatry, neurology and epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh, said people often came in reporting that they or a family member had stopped doing something they always enjoyed, like baking a certain Thanksgiving dessert or tinkering with the lawn mower in springtime.
