The broad importance of dementia is undisputed, with Alzheimer's disease justifiably getting the most attention. However, dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson's disease dementia, now called Lewy body dementias, are the second most common type of degenerative dementia in patients older than 65 years.

In cortical Lewy body dementia the distribution of Lewy bodies in the nervous system follows that of Parkinson's disease, except for their greater profusion in the cerebral cortex. The cortical tangles and plaques of Alzheimer pathology are often present,

Although Lewy body dementia (LBD) has received a considerable amount of interest in the last decade, there still exists a certain level of confusion concerning the clinical and neuropathological features associated with this disorder. According to many researchers, LBD represents a distinct dementing illness with specific clinical features.

Pathological Influences on Clinical Heterogeneity in Lewy Body Diseases [PDF]
PD, PD with dementia, and dementia with Lewy bodies are clinical syndromes characterized by the neuropathological accumulation of alpha‐synuclein in the CNS that represent a clinicopathological spectrum known as Lewy body disorders.

A clinicopathological investigation of brainstem nuclei in Lewy body dementia [PDF]
Introduction: Lewy Body Dementias (LBD) - Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) and Parkinson’s Disease Dementia (PDD) - are clinical diagnoses based on the one-year rule and varied symptom onset. Previously, degeneration of the locus coeruleus (LC) and dorsal

Novel Ubiquitin Specific Protease-13 Inhibitors Alleviate Neurodegenerative Pathology
Ubiquitin Specific Protease-13 (USP13) promotes protein de-ubiquitination and is poorly understood in neurodegeneration. USP13 is upregulated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), and USP13 knockdown via shRNA reduces neurotoxic ...

Cognitive effects of Lewy body pathology in clinically unimpaired individuals
α-Synuclein aggregates constitute the pathology of Lewy body (LB) disease. Little is known about the effects of LB pathology in preclinical (presymptomatic) individuals, either as isolated pathology or coexisting with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology ...

Clinical effects of Lewy body pathology in cognitively impaired individuals
There is poor knowledge about the clinical effects of Lewy body (LB) pathology in patients with cognitive impairment, especially when coexisting with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology (amyloid-β and tau).
