Body clock disruptions occur years before memory loss in Alzheimer's

Body clock disruptions occur years before memory loss in Alzheimer's:

Dementia Big
People with Alzheimer’s disease are known to have disturbances in their internal body clocks that affect the sleep/wake cycle and may increase risk of developing the disorder. Now, new research at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis indicates that such circadian rhythm disruptions also occur much earlier in people whose memories are intact but whose brain scans show early, preclinical evidence of Alzheimer’s.
