Sažetak
Alzheimer Disease Societies Croatia (ADSC), as a main organizer, along with the support of the Croatian Society for Clinieal Psychiatry, CMA and Croatian Society for Neuroscience is continuing to organize the 4th Croatian Congress on Alzheimer's Disease with international participation. This professional and scientific meeting will show the newest findings from the field of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias. This time, also, we are going to begin the Congress with cultural happening -exhibition of paintings from our colleague Primarius Ljubomir Radovančević, MD, PhD. During the working part of the Congress, we will try to lighten disease as much as possible, so we are going to speak about AD thru 12 topics. Namely, this time it will be possible to listen the lectures and view the posters from the following topics: 1. Basic research and neuropathology of AD ; 2. Early diagnostics of AD ; 3. Epidemiology and risk factors for AD ; 4. Clinieal research in AD ; 5. Clinieal characteristics of AD and case reports ; 6. Pharmacotherapy of dementia ; 7. Non-pharmacological intervention in AD ; 8. Care for people with dementia ; 9. Non-Alzheimer dementia ; 10. Quality of life in dementia ; 11. AD Associations and support groups ; 12. Free topics. Thirteen eminent invited speakers will cover many of the topics listed above, and we are more than happy to announce that our Congress will open Dr. Nori Graham, former President and representative of Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI), the umbrella organization, which the ADSC is a full member.Throughout this meeting participants will daily have chance to hear about most recent findings as well from basic as from clinical field and also about care for people with dementia (PWD). We believe that this Congress, which is encouraging the holistic approach to AD, will give the opportunity and space to ali professionals and interested persons from various professions to share the information and experience. Since we did not want parallel lectures, a large number of submitted papers will be presented in poster form, which will remain mounted from opening tili closing of the Congress, and the best of them will be given a priče. We are proud to announce that this Congress hit the record in connection with active participants, and due to this we are sure that the important conclusions will be given, which will have substantially impact on the improvement of care and overall treatment for PWD as well as for quality of life of their careers. Ali mentioned above, will give strength to our volunteers in ADSC to continue on this important task.
