Dementia symptoms can be associated with several conditions. From the list you provided, the following can be linked to dementia symptoms:
1. **Infections**: Certain infections, such as those that cause encephalitis or severe systemic infections, can lead to symptoms resembling dementia.
2. **Parkinson's disease**: This neurodegenerative disorder can lead to dementia symptoms, particularly in its later stages, known as Parkinson's disease dementia.
3. **Sleep disturbances**: While sleep disorders don't directly cause dementia, they can contribute to cognitive decline or exacerbate existing dementia symptoms.
4. **Alcoholism**: Chronic alcohol abuse can lead to cognitive impairment and memory issues, sometimes referred to as alcohol-related dementia.
"Trimmers in brain" appears to be unclear; if you meant "tremors," while tremors are often associated with conditions like Parkinson's, they aren't a direct cause of dementia. "It is made up by the patient" suggests imaginary symptoms, which aren't typically categorized as dementia.
Eating disorders generally do not cause dementia but may lead to cognitive changes due to malnutrition or underlying psychological issues.
Based on your list, the relevant conditions are **infections**, **Parkinson's disease**, **sleep disturbances**, and **alcoholism**.
