ILBD cases with rest EMG discharges are in bold. DLB III refers to the third DLB consensus conference methods (McKeith et al., 2005). Unified Lewy Body Staging system as per Beach et al., 2009. OB&T=Olfactory bulb and tract.
*
Cases with Lewy related pathology in the olfactory tract and bulb only or olfactory tract and bulb and amygdala only do not have a stage defined in the DLB-III consensus criteria.
