Is there any link between a stroke and Alzheimer's disease?

Answer:

There is no evidence that one causes the other. The fact that victims of Alzheimer's, a form of dementia, die of any other disease, malady, etc, such as a heart attack or stroke, is attributable only to the overal degeneration of the brain and body; in other words, it is a coincidence.
