Concerns 2018

This was created in March 2009 as a redirect to Dementia#Subcortical dementias. That section was removed in a major restructuring in this edit in October 2009, since when the term has not appeared in the Dementia article. This new stub, created by a newly-registered editor as their first contribution (and part of which is identifiably copyvio) uses a 1984 source which refers to an "emerging concept". Could an expert in medicine / dementia etc please have a look? Thanks. PamD 10:06, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
