Memory Changes
Type: Symptom
Definition
Shifts in the brain's ability to encode, store, and retrieve information, encompassing both normal age-related, minor forgetfulness (e.g., misplacing items, occasional word-finding pauses) and abnormal, disruptive decline. These changes involve underlying neuroplasticity, where neural connections are strengthened or weakened.
