Differentiation of dementia with Lewy bodies from Alzheimer's disease using a dopaminergic presynaptic ligand

, 2002
Background: Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is one of the main differential diagnoses of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Key pathological features of patients with DLB are not only the presence of cerebral cortical neuronal loss, with Lewy bodies in surviving ...

TDP‐43 Aggregation: The Healthy‐Toxic Balance of the Prion‐Like Domain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TDP‐43 function relies on a delicate balance between reversible phase‐separated states and irreversible aggregation. Under physiological conditions, TDP‐43 forms dynamic droplets and oligomers that support normal cellular functions. In pathological contexts, this balance shifts toward aberrant aggregation, leading to toxic species.

Psychotropic medication use among community dwellers with and without Parkinson's disease – A nationwide cohort study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims We studied the prevalence of psychotropic use and psychotropic polypharmacy in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) during a 10‐year follow‐up, because longitudinal studies on this topic are scarce although non‐motor symptoms of PD are often treated with psychotropics.

A Systematic Review on Disease‐Modifying Therapies in Parkinsonian Disorders

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Parkinsonian disorders, including Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, multiple system atrophy, and progressive supranuclear palsy, are progressive neurodegenerative conditions with no treatment options to slow disease progression. This systematic review provides an overview of evidence of disease‐modifying therapies that have been evaluated in ...

Relation of neuropathology with cognitive decline among older persons without dementia

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2013
Objective: Although it is now widely accepted that dementia has a long preclinical phase during which neuropathology accumulates and cognition declines, little is known about the relation of neuropathology with the longitudinal rate of change in ...

Serum NfL, GFAP, and p‐tau217 in adults with drug‐resistant epilepsy and intellectual disabilities: Signs of ongoing neural injury

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Adults with epilepsy and intellectual disabilities (IDs) may be at increased risk of dementia, but clinical evaluation is complex and use of conventional biomarkers is often considered too invasive. We explored abnormality of serum neurofilament light chain (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and phosphorylated tau‐217 (p ...

Contributions of other brain pathologies in dementia with lewy bodies

, 2002
The clinical picture with its pathological correlate was analysed in 16 patients fulfilling consensus criteria for dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). The cases were part of a larger cohort (n = 200) of patients within a prospective longitudinal study of ...

The We‐Relationship as a Key to Addressing Dementia‐Related Ambiguous Loss

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pauline Boss describes the challenges faced by people caring for family members with dementia in terms of ambiguous loss – a condition in which the physical presence of the person with dementia coexists with their psychological absence. This article proposes the concept of we‐relationship as a key to addressing dementia‐related ambiguous loss.
