Dear library users,

The NLH Later Life Specialist Library has launched the Alzheimer’s
Disease and Dementia Annual Evidence Update 2008:

http://www.library.nhs.uk/laterlife

The Later Life Specialist Library’s Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia
Annual Evidence Update aims to provide healthcare professionals with a
clear path to the most important recent evidence surrounding the five
major types of dementias: Alzheimer’s; Vascular dementia; Dementia
with lewy bodies; Frontotemporal dementia; and mixed dementias.

The Dementia AEU provides bibliographies and clinical commentary on
secondary research (systematic reviews, meta analyses and guidelines)
from the last 14 months for the following topics:

1. Definitions, Diagnosis and screening
2. Risk factors and aetiology
3. Pharmacological treatments
4. Non-pharmacological treatments
5. Rehabilitation, practice and care standards
6. Evidence on other Dementias.

Many thanks,

Eli
