Dementia is not a disease that affects only older adults. Dementia that develops at a relatively young age, between 45 and 65, is called early-onset (presenile) dementia. Because it tends to progress faster than dementia in older adults, please consult a medical specialist without delay if symptoms occur.2026-06-26

Stroke is a medical emergency that occurs when a blood vessel in the brain becomes blocked or ruptures. A blocked blood vessel is called a cerebral infarction, and a ruptured one is called a cerebral hemorrhage. If symptoms appear, going to the emergency room immediately is the most important way to reduce aftereffects. Stroke is also closely related to dementia. The main symptom of stroke is the loss of a specific bodily function, such as paralysis of the arms or legs. The most important factor in treatment is the golden time (the critical time window for treatment), so please be sure to consult a medical specialist for an accurate diagnosis. If abnormal symptoms appear, call 119 (Korea's emergency number) or go to the emergency room immediately.2026-06-26
