Shocking! Jang Young-ran,

Hello, this is Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic, always happy to meet you.

While looking through a popular article, I came across news that entertainer Jang Young-ran was shocked after receiving a diagnosis of “early dementia.”

Recently, news that broadcaster Jang Young-ran underwent a dementia test because of the difficulty she has been experiencing with word choice and stumbling over her words surprised many people.

Even on broadcasts, there were occasional moments where she would use the wrong word or struggle to express herself properly, which increased concern.

Signs that may raise suspicion of dementia

Jang Young-ran continued to experience symptoms such as saying the wrong word or stumbling over words in daily life.

Especially when it became difficult to remember words or express herself appropriately,

she began to feel that the problem was serious.

She had experienced dyslexia symptoms in the past as well, and the symptoms tended to worsen when she was tense or tired.

Jang Young-ran was worried that it might simply be a symptom caused by aging,

and decided to undergo testing to check whether it was an early sign of dementia.

What tests are done if dementia is suspected?

Jang Young-ran underwent various tests.

The test items consisted of five areas in total: memory, concentration, language function, visuospatial perception, and executive function,

and in addition, blood tests, cerebral blood flow ultrasound, electrocardiogram, and more were included.

Results of the various tests

Fortunately, overall memory and cognitive function were within the normal range.

However, language function was assessed as reduced.

This led to difficulty recalling words or expressing them properly.

Fortunately, it was not dementia, and overall cognitive function was confirmed to be within the normal range.

If you would like to test your own memory, you can try a simple test using ChatGPT.

Relax with a light mind and do not cheat if you want an accurate result.

I am a person who has recently been feeling a decline in memory.

As a neurologist with 10 years of experience, please conduct a K-MMSE test for me.

Please ask the questions one by one, and at the end, calculate the score and explain the result.

Why did this problem occur?

The cause of the symptoms Jang Young-ran is experiencing appears to be mainly related to tension, stress, and past dyslexia symptoms.

When psychological tension or stress is present, the symptoms tend to become more pronounced.

Language function decline solutions

1. Read books aloud

A recommended method as part of speech training.

2. Conversation training

It is important to have a lot of everyday conversations.

3. Noise-canceling headphones to improve concentration

They may help improve focus.

4. Improvement is possible through steady practice and training.

Conclusion

In Jang Young-ran’s case, it was a relief that it was confirmed not to be the early stage of dementia,

but a clear decline in language function was present.

This shows how important it is to get tested quickly, identify the problem, and establish a treatment plan.

Consistent language training and management are needed!

Especially if the symptoms worsen when you are tense or tired, more intensive management is needed.

If you are experiencing similar symptoms, please consult a specialist for an accurate evaluation and diagnosis. This has been Merry Plastic Surgery Clinic, always happy to meet you.
