Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Alzheimer's Disease, vascular dementia, and Parkinson's disease are all conditions that can lead to or are associated with age-related dementia. Alzheimer's is the most common cause of dementia, involving a decline in cognitive function and memory. Vascular dementia is the second most common type, resulting from conditions that block or reduce blood flow to the brain, leading to brain damage. Parkinson's disease is a disorder of the central nervous system that can also lead to dementia in its later stages. Pellagra, on the other hand, is a vitamin deficiency disease caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) and is not classified as a form of dementia.
