Challenges in Predicting Cognitive Decline in Dementia with Lewy Bodies

Konstantinos Tsamakis et al.

Summary: DLB, the second most common form of neurodegenerative dementia, is often under-recognized and presents with distinct cognitive impairment features compared to Alzheimer's disease. Challenges in predicting cognitive decline in this patient population arise from delayed diagnosis, measurement tools focusing on memory rather than DLB-affected domains, and difficulties in distinguishing between cognitive fluctuation and delirium episodes. Further study on the role of sleep disturbances in cognitive decline in DLB is needed, as well as a better understanding of the influence of neuropathological comorbidities on the disease course. The recent definition of research criteria for mild cognitive impairment in DLB may aid in earlier diagnosis and structured follow-up, while greater use of assessment tools specific to DLB-affected domains and biomarkers could enable more accurate monitoring and prediction of cognitive decline.

Progression of Clinical Features in Lewy Body Dementia Can Be Detected Over 6 Months

Elie Matar et al.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the trajectory and magnitude of change in key clinical features of dementia with Lewy bodies and Parkinson disease dementia over a 6-month period. Significant declines in cognitive function, motor parkinsonism, cognitive fluctuations, and sleep disturbance were detected, suggesting these measures could be useful as clinical endpoints in therapeutic trials.

Identifying relevant outcomes in the progression of Alzheimer's disease; what do patients and care partners want to know about prognosis?

Arenda Mank et al.

Summary: The study identified cognitive decline, dependency, and physical health as the most relevant prognostic outcomes for patients and their care partners in the context of Alzheimer's disease. Items related to behavior and neuropsychiatry and social environment were not considered as important by both groups.

Progression of Clinical Features in Lewy Body Dementia Can Be Detected Over 6 Months

Elie Matar et al.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the trajectory and magnitude of change of key clinical features in Lewy body dementia over a short period of 6 months. Significant decline in cognitive function, worsening of motor parkinsonism, increased cognitive fluctuations, and worsening sleep symptoms were observed in this timeframe. However, there were no significant changes in neuropsychiatric symptoms, and no difference in rates of change between DLB and PDD. These findings suggest that common clinical instruments can be useful in monitoring disease progression in Lewy body dementia.
