Comparing phenotypic features between Parkinson’s disease dementia and dementia with Lewy bodies
Despite being grouped under Lewy body dementias, these findings show PDD and DLB have distinct phenotypes reflecting their neurobiological underpinnings. This has implications for symptomatic and disease-modifying management. Future research should explore pathological mechanisms of these characteristics to improve diagnosis and treatment strategies.
