Dementia and COVID-19: A Case Report and Literature Review on Pain Management

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about an unprecedented lifestyle of social isolation, with dementia patients bearing the highest risk of mortality and cognitive decline. Lockdown measures have hindered disease monitoring and worsened neuropsychiatric symptoms in this group, calling for proper pain assessment and treatment.

Emergency department admissions induced by drug-drug interactions in the elderly: A cross-sectional study

Louis Letinier et al.

Summary: Elderly people are at an increasing risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) due to polymedication. This study investigated the impact of severe DDIs on emergency admissions in the elderly. The results showed that high-risk drug combinations mainly led to long QT syndrome, with certain antidepressants being involved.

A bitter pill to swallow - Polypharmacy and psychotropic treatment in people with advanced dementia

Lina Riedl et al.

Summary: This study investigated the use of drugs in people with advanced dementia, with a focus on psychotropic drug use. The findings showed a high prevalence of medication use, including potentially inappropriate medications. Older age, living in long term care facilities, and dementia etiology were found to be determinants of psychotropic drug use. The study highlights the importance of critically examining drug indication and considering deprescribing to reduce polypharmacy and medication-related harm.

Algorithm-based pain management for people with dementia in nursing homes

Christina Manietta et al.

Summary: People with dementia in nursing homes often experience pain but often do not receive adequate pain therapy. Algorithm-based pain management interventions may help reduce pain, but the current evidence is limited and insufficient to support its effectiveness.

The Role of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms in Research Diagnostic Criteria for Neurodegenerative Diseases

Jeffrey Cummings

Summary: Neuropsychiatric syndromes and symptoms are playing increasingly important roles in research diagnostic criteria for neurodegenerative disorders. They are often core diagnostic criteria, and the relationships between neuropsychiatric symptoms and cognitive, motor, and autonomic symptoms are being studied and better understood.

Pattern of treatment of behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia and pain: evidence on pharmacoutilization from a large real-world sample and from a centre for cognitive disturbances and dementia

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: This study found that dementia is diagnosed late in Italy, with a high prescription rate of drugs for behavioral and psychological symptoms. Adherence to treatment does not impact the pattern of drug prescriptions. Additionally, antipsychotics and antidepressants are commonly used, while analgesics are under-prescribed.

New trends in pharmacological control of neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: Abnormal neuronal and synaptic plasticity are present in Alzheimer's disease and depression. Current drug therapies for treating neuropsychiatric symptoms have not been able to provide a complete cure, despite numerous clinical trials investigating drugs with different structures and mechanisms of action.

Development and Translation of NanoBEO, a Nanotechnology-Based Delivery System of Bergamot Essential Oil Deprived of Furocumarins, in the Control of Agitation in Severe Dementia

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: The study aims to develop a nanotechnology delivery system NanoBEO based on solid lipid nanoparticles loaded with bergamot essential oil (BEO) to manage agitation caused by dementia. The stability of titrated BEO components is guaranteed and double-blind clinical trials are being planned to establish efficacy and safety.

Role of CGRP pathway polymorphisms in migraine: a systematic review and impact on CGRP mAbs migraine therapy

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: Research interest in the genetic polymorphisms and epigenetics related to migraine, particularly focusing on the calcitonin-gene related peptide (CGRP) pathway, has been increasing. However, only a limited number of studies have been able to identify specific genetic variants affecting migraine susceptibility and treatment response, indicating the need for further well-powered and high-quality research in this area.

Damiana Scuteri et al.

Summary: Pain is often underdiagnosed and not adequately treated, leading to behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. Atypical antipsychotics, associated with severe cerebrocardiovascular effects, are commonly used to treat BPSD. Research is also focusing on nonpharmacological treatment, such as aromatherapy, for pain and BPSD in dementia.
