The unified Lewy stage and summary score of LB density for 10 standardized brain regions in 10 PD patients

Case no Unified LB stage Summary score of LB densitya
PD 1 III. Brainstem/Limbic 29
 2 IV. Neocortical 35
 3 III. Brainstem/Limbic 28
 4 IV. Neocortical 29
 5 III. Brainstem/Limbic 30
 6 IV. Neocortical 37
 7 III. Brainstem/Limbic 15b
 8 III. Brainstem/Limbic 27
 9 III. Brainstem/Limbic 11b
 10 IV. Neocortical 36
a

The maximum summary score is 40

b

For this case, only seven regions were examined; therefore, the score is not strictly comparable to the others
