2、he week it is? Not to worry. Occasional memory lapses are normal and not, as you might secretly fear, an early sign of Alzheimers disease.

3、e American Medical Association should make the job easier.The text, Diagnosis, Management and Treatment of Dementia : A Practical Guide for Primary Care Physicians, is somewhat technical but contains a lot of useful information.

5、octor every medication you or a loved one is taking, including over-the-counter medicine and dietary supplements.Dont overlook depression.

6、ith clear-cut dementia and depression are less confused when their depression is treated.Dont give up even if you or a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimers disease.

14、 You probably already know that a viselike pressure in the chest is the most common physical sign of a heart attack. You may even be aware that the body sometimes “refers“ the pain of a heart attack, sending it to the neck, jaw or arms. But do you know the second, third or fourth most common sign of
15、 a heart attack? You should. According to a study in journal of the American Medical Association(JAMA), recognizing the less common signs of a heart attack could save your life or that of someone you love.Speed makes a difference. Heart-attack victims who dont experience chest pain typically put off
16、 going to the hospitalby an average of two hours, the JAMA study found. When these patients finally show up at the emergency room, it often takes doctors longer to make the right diagnosis. All the while, their heart isnt getting potentially life-saving treatment with clot-busting drugs, beta-blocke
17、rs or emergency angioplasty. These delays help explain why a heart-attack patient who doesnt experience chest pains is twice as likely to die at the hospital as someone who does.By studying a computerized database of more than 430,000 people who suffered heart attacks across the U. S. , it was deter
18、mined that there are six major risk factors that increase the chances that any heart attack you suffer will be atypical. These six risk factors include: having a weak heart(from congestive heart disease), diabetes or a history of stroke; being 65 or older, female or from a minority group. The increa
19、sed risk is cumulative: If a 75-year-old black woman has a heart attack, her chances of experiencing chest pain are less than 50%.Apparently diabetics feel less pain because of nerve damage caused by their condition, but no one knows why women or the elderly are more likely to suffer painless heart
20、attacks.So what, besides chest pain, should you watch for? Probably the next biggest tip-off is extreme shortness of breath. Indeed, many cardiologists consider difficulty breathing to be as good an indicator of a possible heart attack as chest pain. Other less specific signs include nausea, profuse
21、 sweating and fainting. Some heart-attack victims describe a sudden, overwhelming sense of doom or feel pain under their scapula.Be particularly suspicious of any “heartburn“ that gets worse if you walk around or otherwise exert yourself physically. Dont try to drive yourself to the hospital. Call a
22、n ambulance. Then, if you think of it, chew on an aspirin; 325 mg is the recommended dose, and chewing gets the drug into the bloodstream faster. A single tablet can stave off some of the damage. Above all, dont tell yourself, “I cant be having a heart attack, Im not feeling any chest pains. “ Let a
23、 doctor make the final call.6 According to the first paragraph, the common signs of a heart attack does not include(A)a great pressure in the chest.(B) certain chest pain.(C) serious headache.(D)spreading neck pain.7 What does “Speed makes a difference“ in the second paragraph mean?(A)Haste can help
24、 distinguish between heart attacks and other diseases.(B) Speed can help save the patients life when suffering a heart attack.(C) Doctors should make the right diagnosis with high speed.(D)Patients should adopt different speeds to go to hospital.8 Who will experience the least chest pain when he or
