爱丁堡大学的“预防工程”(the Prevent project)旨在通过长期的跟踪研究，发现阿尔茨海默氏症是如果一步步影响人类大脑的(affect the human brain on stages)。“预防工程”通过从青年时期开始观察实验对象来掌握该症候的早期表现(early indicators)，希望从中得出结论，以帮助人们在早期症状出现时就通过改变生活方式来预防痴呆(ward off the disease through lifestyle changes)。该工程的早期研究发现，虽然传统上认为阿尔茨海默氏症主要涉及记忆功能的破坏，但实现上病症带来的最早不便并不是记忆力下降(declining memories)，而是无法对自己所在的方位进行空间想象，突然走失在熟悉的空间环境中(losing ability to navigate)。换言之，方向感不好的人由于海马体体积较小，在年长时患上阿尔茨海默氏症的风险较高。

France on Sunday shrugged off the siren call of right-wing populism that enchanted voters in the United States and United Kingdom, ­rejecting anti-E.U. firebrand ­Marine Le Pen and choosing as its next president Emmanuel Macron, a centrist political neophyte who has pledged to revive both his struggling country and the flailing continent.
