2 Dementia Type Total Population Overall, Alzheimer s disease accounts for just over half of all dementia significantly more than any other form. About two fifths of all patients are in each of the mild and moderate stages, and the remaining fifth are in the severe stage Distribution of Dementia Types 13% 14% 2% 1% 55% 22% 22% Mild cognitive impairment Dementia with Lewy bodies Vascular Mixed Other Alzheimer s disease 15% 11% Alzheimer s mild Alzheimer s moderate Alzheimer s severe Source: Icon and Landis, Fall 2000

3 Cause di demenza organica Diagnosi neuropatologica in 400 pazienti Studio longitudinale di Lund (1992) - DAT: demenza tipo Alzheimer 26% 12% 9% 3% 8% 42% DAT Miste (DAT + demenza vascolare) Demenza vascolare Degenerazioni fronto- temporali non-dat (incl( incl. morbo di Pick 1%) Encefaliti (incl( incl.. morbo di Creutzfeldt-Jacob Jacob) Altre demenze (incl( incl.. tumori 1%) McKeith et al, Neurology 1996; 47:

4 Extrapyramidal symptoms and signs in Alzheimer's disease: prevalence and correlation with the first symptom. Tsolaki M, Kokarida K, Iakovidou V, Stilopoulos E, Meimaris J, Kazis A. Am J Alzheimers Dis Other Demen 2001 Sep-Oct;16(5): The most common types of EPS presented in the patient group were hypomimia ([facial mask] 60 percent), difficulty in talking (53.66 percent), bradykinesia (51.4 percent), postural instability (47.33 percent), abnormal gait (34.66%), and rigidity (26 percent), respectively. No significant differences were found when examining for the presence of resting tremor, other tremors, dystonias, and dyskinesias. The mean duration of the disease in patients appearing with EPS is found to be / years. The presence of EPS increases proportionally with the progression of the disease and cognitive and functional decline Patients who presented EPS at initial examination appeared to deteriorate faster, mainly cognitively, but also functionally. The mean decrease in MMSE scores in patients with EPS was found to be /- 3.46; while in patients without EPS at initial visit, MMSE scores were /

5 Risk of Dementia in PD patients 43 out of 130 PD patients developed dementia during a 4.2 years follow-up period The incidence of dementia was 95.3 per 1000 person years while it was 25.5 per 1000 person years among control subjects Patients with PD had a 5.9-fold higher risk for developing dementia than controls without PD after adjustement for age, gender, and education Baseline Characteristics Mean Age Duration of Disease, >7y MMSE Score <29 UPDRS motor score >20 H-Y stage <2.5 L-Dopa dose <450 mg Dementia N=43 (33%) 73,7 (5,7) 65% 77% 28% 21% 42% No Dementia N=87 (67%) 67,7 (8,3) 45% 41% 61% 54% 63% Aarsland et al., Neurology 2001

24 The continuum of LBD and AD DLBD LBD + AD AD+LBV AD

25 The relationship between pathologies: in Alzheimer's disease the Aß pathology is upstream of, and can potentiate, the Lewy body pathology. This latter can be activated directly by -synuclein mutations (or other genetic lesions). If an individual close to the threshold for developing Lewy bodies starts to develop Aß pathology, this can initiate the cortical Lewy body formation (see Ref. 20 ). Abbreviations: AD = Alzheimer's disease; PD = Parkinson's disease; DLB = dementia with Lewy bodies.
