  • * Significantly different between groups (ANOVA, P < 0.01).

  • DLB = dementia with Lewy bodies; PART = primary age-related tauopathy; FTLD-TDP = frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TDP-43 inclusions; HS = hippocampal sclerosis.

  • Qualitative data are numbers; continuous data are mean ± SD. All subjects were male.
