A single approach to treatment cannot be applied to all patients. Acute, adult-acquired infection rarely requires treatment, whereas treatment for chronic infection should be based on the patient’s clinical situation and test results.

Basic research is bringing a much-needed infusion of optimism and urgency to the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer disease. Some of its risk factors may be modifiable, and although current drugs offer only modest benefit, true disease-modifying drugs are on the horizon.

Depression is a risk factor for new cardiac disease and has a detrimental effect in established cardiac disease. Clinicians should routinely screen for it in cardiac patients and should not hesitate to treat it.
