Health | Similarly, many PD patients develop dementia and have neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques like those found in AD. A further indication of overlap is Lewy body disease, a neurodegenerative disorder whose clinical signs occupy a middle ground between AD on the one hand and PD on the other. (references) | |
Investigators made measurements of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in certain regions of the brain after participants had died and compared these measurements to the individuals' previous clinical status, cognitive measures, and rate of cognitive change (Green et al., 2000). Results indicated that there was an increased burden of these neuropathological markers even in those individuals who had cognitive decline but were not functionally impaired and did not meet diagnostic criteria for dementia.
