Abstract Background: Dementia is a large and growing health problem, and since the majority of dementia patients live at home, caring responsibilities generally fall to family members. Caregivers are often inadequately supported by formal health services and have poorer psychological and physical health. Our study aimed to compare the contributions of publications from different countries, institutions and authors and present a bibliometric analysis to determine the future hotspots and trends in research on the health of and interventions for family dementia caregivers. Methods: Studies published during 1988-2018 were extracted from the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science. Each publication was evaluated to obtain the basic information. Bibliometric analysis was used to evaluate the number or cooperation networks of publications, countries, institutions, journals, citations, authors, references, and keywords. The resulting articles were analyzed descriptively, and data were produced for VOSviewer. Results: Five hundred forty-two articles were identified.The annual number of relevant publications has increased steadily since approximately 2006. The USA has the highest number of publications (36.2%), followed by the UK (12.9%). China entered late, but research there has developed rapidly. The most productive institution, journal, and author in this field are University College London, the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, and Orrell M from the UK, respectively. A co-occurrence analysis of keywords reveals a mainstream research focus on burden, depression, quality of life, and corresponding interventions for dementia patient caregivers. The keywords “psychosocial intervention”, “long-term”, “e-learning/online”, “communication”, and “qualitative research” reflect the latest hotspots, appearing in approximately 2017-2018. Conclusion: Our study details the performance statistics of and the main topics and trends in the research on the health of and interventions for dementia caregivers from 1988 to 2018 and provides a comprehensive analysis.

Olanzapine is second generation antipsychotic drug. It alters affinities for serotonin and dopamine receptors and provides mild sedating and calming effect. It is indicated for the treatment of schizophrenia, acute mania and the prevention of relapse in bipolar disorder. We present a case report of a 65- year- old man with bipolar disorder I, who developed black hairy tongue following treatment with olanzapine and completely recovered after withdrawal of treatment. Awareness about this particular adverse drug reaction will ensure proper management and avoid unnecessary investigations.

The role of caregivers for dementia patients to improve health care is not yet optimal. Dementia patient care is an experience-based effort for complex dementia patients that can increase the psychological pressure of caregivers. The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of the caregiver's role in dementia patients to improve health care. Search strategies for English-language studies that are relevant to the topic are carried out using the ScienceDirect, SagePub, Springer databases limited from 2014 to 2020. The keywords used are "caregiver", "dementia", "health care", "role". Fulltext articles are reviewed to select studies that fit the criteria. The inclusion criteria in this review are  health workers, caregivers. A search using the keywords above with the ScienceDirect, SagePub, Springer database that met the inclusion criteria was only 22 articles. Research examined in this article uses a variety of methods, namely systematic literature review by 1 articles, RCT by 4 articles, interview by 1 articles, qualitative study by 5 articles, quasi-experimental study 2 article, participatory research of 1 article, bootstrapping methods of 1 article, scoping review of published literature by 1 articles, quantitative study by 1 articles, cohort study path analysis by 1, a survey to clarify the evaluation by 1, SEM by 1, standardized protocol by 1. Research using random techniques as much as 10 articles, while those using non-random techniques as many as 12 articles. The role of caregivers for dementia patients to improve health care is an effective experience-based effort and is the most appropriate activity for elderly patients with dementia. Enhance the role of the caregiver by changing the caregiver's perception of a more positive view of his role.
