Article Abstract
The percentages of mixed LB disease and AD versus pure LB disease varied from 91%mixed and 9%pure to 34%mixed and 66%pure,depending upon which diagnostic criteria for AD were employed.Most dementia brains with LB occupied higher modified Braak stages than controls but lower ones than pure AD specimens.A minority of the dementia brains with LB had no more AD-type pathology than controls.
