In this video, tailored to a more scientific audience, Dr. Richard Swartz, ONDRI co-lead, reviews different types of strokes, with connections to dementia and vascular cognitive impairment. ONDRI researchers are working to unravel the complexities of these disorders and their overlaps with neurodegenerative diseases and dementia.
The Ontario Neurodegenerative Disease Research Initiative (ONDRI) is a provincial collaboration studying Dementia and how to improve the diagnosis, treatment and outcomes of associated diseases including Alzheimer’s disease/Mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson’s disease, Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Stroke.
ONDRI is carried out in partnership with the Ontario Brain Institute.

My father developed vascular dementia. Though it was still presenting itself when he died, there were times when he was totally aware that he was confused, or becoming confused. There were many days were it was really rough, and many days were he would be only mildly confused.

I’m a retired GP and would encourage you to take him to see your doctor asap….

One year after dementia diagnosis. I taught high school biology for over 20 years. I had no courses of this topic in my zoology and botany BSc. Clearly I'm not the intended audience. I get only fear and confusion and probable nightmares

Unfortunately, without a baseline of cognitive function for a patient like "Einstein" (for extreme example), one could hardly know for sure his constant whining and complaining of cognitive decline is genuine, given the "average" ish indicators used in most cognitive tests. He can draw a clock, tie his shoes, etc. Einstein must be mistaken that he can no longer evaluate complex integrals. Send him home with a pat on the head .. Definitely do not send him for an MRI or anything "fancy" like that based solely on his wild complaint. Wait until the problem is more serious and when there is little we can do. Definitely do not "treat early". As this is likely "aggressive" Sarcasm off now.
