[[Altered mental status|'''Altered mental status''']] is a state of a variety of [[diseases]]. Although the [[neural]] science behind [[alertness]], [[wakefulness]], and [[arousal]] are not fully understood, it is known that the [[reticular formation]] plays an important role in these.
[[Altered mental status|'''Altered mental status''']] is a state of a variety of [[diseases]], hence, there is no single [[pathophysiology]] mechanism.

[[Altered mental status|Altered mental status]] is a state of a variety of [[diseases]], hence, there is no single [[pathophysiology]] mechanism. It is known that the [[reticular formation]] plays an important role in the state of alertness. We explain the most important subtypes of [[altered mental status]]:

Although the neural science behind alertness, wakefulness, and arousal are not fully known, the [[reticular formation]] is known to play a role in these. The [[ascending reticular activating system]] is a postulated group of neural connections that receives sensory input and projects to the [[cerebral cortex]] through the [[midbrain]] and [[thalamus]] from the retucular formation.

Overview

Altered mental status is a state of a variety of diseases, hence, there is no single pathophysiology mechanism. Although, the neural science behind alertness, wakefulness, and arousal are not fully understood, it is known that the reticular formation plays an important role in these.

Pathogenesis

Altered mental status is a state of a variety of diseases, hence, there is no single pathophysiology mechanism. It is known that the reticular formation plays an important role in the state of alertness. We explain the most important subtypes of altered mental status:

Dementia

Alzheimer's disease

While the pathogenesis of AD remains unclear, It is thought that dementia is the result of:

Parkinson's disease

The pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease is a depletion of dopamine due to the following mechanisms:

Delirium

Delirium is caused by a broad spectrum of diseases and clinical problems. Among the hypothesis of delirium developement are:

Genetics

Dementia

Alzheimer's disease

Early onset (Alzheimer's dementia-AD 1, 3 and 4)

30-50 percent of early-onset Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is associated with an autosomal dominant inheritance and consists of mutations in the following genes:[32][33]

Late onset (Alzheimer's dementia -AD2)

Parkinson's disease

Some of specific genes involving in PD are:

Delirium

The genes that may be used as risk biomarkers for the developement of delirium are the following:

Associated Conditions

The most important conditions/diseases associated with altered mental status include:

Gross Pathology

Dementia

Alzheimer's disease

The most important characteristics of Alzheimer's disease on gross pathology are:

Parkinson's disease

The most important characteristics of Parkinson's disease on gross pathology are:

Delirium

There are no characteristic gross pathology findings in dementia.

Microscopic Pathology

Dementia

Alzheimer's disease

The most important histopathological characteristics of Alzheimer's disease are:

Parkinson's disease

The most important histopathological characteristics of Parkinson's disease are:

Delirium

There are no characteristic histopathological findings in delirium.
