amentia

The former are labouring under dementia, not amentia.

Illegitimacy is, however, the larger problem in rural amentia.

Cretinism is a form of amentia, which is endemic in certain districts, especially in some of the valleys of Switzerland, Savoy, and France.

Acute miliary tuberculosis may produce the impression of a general paresis or of an amentia in Meynert's sense.

In dementia the mental aberration does not occur until the mind has become fully developed, thus differing from amentia, which is congenital or comes on very early in life.
