Recent findings: AD(Alzheimer’s disease) patients with psychosis indicate accelerated rate of cognitive decline prior to the beginning of psychosis are at increased risk of altering to AD. According to neurobiological studies, there may be worthiness in breaking down symptoms into delusions and hallucinations while other studies like epidemiologic and genetic studies recommend the opposite opinion. Summary: This Article provides, based on the research that genetic factors relate to neurodegeneration to produce sensitivity to the development of psychosis in AD. Future studies are required for clarification of individual symptoms(delusions/hallucination).
