Current concepts and controversies in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease dementia and Dementia with Lewy Bodies

2017-08-30

Abstract excerpt

Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) are relentlessly progressive neurodegenerative disorders that are likely to represent two ends of a disease spectrum. It is well established that both are characterised pathologically by widespread cortical Lewy body deposition. However, until recently, the pathophysiological mechanisms leading to neuronal damage were not known. It was also not...
