The relationship between stress and Alzheimer's disease
Open accessAbstract
Stress is critically involved in the development and progression of disease. From the stress of undergoing treatments to facing your own mortality, the physiological processes that stress drives have a serious detrimental effect on the ability to heal, cope and maintain a positive quality of life. This is becoming increasingly clear in the case of neurodegenerative diseases. Neurodegenerative diseases involve the devastating loss of cognitive and motor function which is stressful in itself, but can also disrupt neural circuits that mediate stress responses. Disrupting these circuits produces aberrant emotional and aggressive behavior that causes long-term care to be especially difficult. In addition, added stress drives progression of the disease and can exacerbate symptoms. In this review, I describe how neural and endocrine pathways activated by stress interact with ongoing neurodegenerative disease from both a clinical and experimental perspective.

Symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, and chronic psychological distress have been associated with an increased risk of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease.
“Symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, and chronic psychological distress have also been associated with an increased risk of MCI and AD [114,115].”
From Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment Strategies and Their Limitations. (2022) · cites this paper as [114]
The clinical-relationship section (page unavailable) reports associations of late-life depression, anxiety and distress proneness with later dementia, including AD, and links depressive symptoms in people already diagnosed with MCI to progression to dementia. It does not establish an increased risk of developing MCI from those symptoms, and says the effect of stress on AD risk in humans has been difficult to demonstrate. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
