“Has the person become agitated, aggressive, irritable, or temperamental?” the questionnaire asks. “Does she/he have unrealistic beliefs about her/his power, wealth or skills?” “人有变得焦躁不安、具攻击性、易怒、情绪起伏不定吗?”这份调查表问到。“她/他有对自己的能力、财富或技能抱着妄信吗?” Or maybe another kind of personality change has happened: “Does she/he no longer care about anything?” 又或许,她/他的个性有了另一种转变:“对任何事都漠不关心?” If the answer is yes to one of these questions — or others on a new checklist — and the personality or behavior change has lasted for months, it could indicate a very early stage of dementia, according to a group of neuropsychiatrists and Alzheimer’s experts. 如果对上述问题之一的回答是肯定的,或对这份新检查清单上的其他问题有肯定的回答,且这些性格或行为的转变已经持续数月,那么根据一群神经心理学家与阿尔茨海默氏症专家的说法,这可能意味着某人正处于失智症(痴呆症)极早期阶段。 |
