alcoholic dementia
Alcoholic dementia refers to a cognitive decline in mental function, mainly memory, problem-solving, and decision-making, developed as a result of long-term, excessive alcohol consumption. It includes several conditions like Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome and nutritional deficiencies, leading to severe brain damage. Symptoms may be similar to other forms of dementia, but certain effects may be partially reversible with abstinence.
