Abstract

Alzeimer disease is a daunting nightmare to both the medical and families of the patients. Tireless efforts are made by the medical researchers to treat Alzheimer’s patients. The Alzhiemer patients’ data provides clues about its prognosis and they can be identifies when the data are analyzed and understood correctly. The data analysis is a first step in the path to breakthrough treatment. Towards this aim, this article introduces a new statistical distribution and calls it Down-Upsized Incidence Poisson Distribution (DUIPD). The properties of DUIPD are obtained and illustrated to interpret the patterns in the prognosis of two group of Alzheimer’s patients. In one group, the patients received a doseage of lecithin and other in the control group received placebo drug.

  • With the variables Y0 denoting the number of words the Alzheimer’s patient remembered initially before the experiment began with no down-sizing effect, the Maximum Likelihood Estimate (MLE) of the incidence parameter is θmle = Y0 and the conditional MLE of the down-upsizing effect is Equation (10.1 and 10.2): θmle = y0

Summary

INTRODUCTION

What is Alzheimer’s disease? This disease was named after a German psychiatrist, Alois Alzheimer who first discovered it in 1908. Moore and Moore (2012). Provides a historical account, research centers and treatment facilities of Alzheimer’s disease. When and where the Alzheimer’s disease occurs is narrated in. Ronald Reagon had this disease until his death. The former prime minister of England, Mr Harold Wilson had this disease. It is a brain disease causing severe memory impairment. There is no preventive or effective treatment as of now. There is no preventive or effective treatment as of It occurs with senile plagues, neurofibrillary tangles, dystrophic neuritis and neuronal loss. The average life expectancy is only seven years once the disease is onset, though it commonly occurs among those aged 65 or older. A measure to capture the deterioration or improvement is the number of words an Alzheimer’s
