Wow! now this is interesting. How did they define "treated"? Stimulants or other pharmacological interventions, psychotherapy, or of course my favorite-- candle exercises? Seems like these would have to be epidemiological studies looking at prevalence of Alzheimer's in treated and untreated people. I'm imagining one of the study subjects as a 90 yr old lady on Ritalin kick'en *** in the rest home chess tournament.
Just curious.
