LBD type	Age at death	Sex (M:F)	Braak NFT stage (0 – VI)	Thal amyloid phase (0 – 5)	Brain weight (grams)
BLBD	78 (71, 84)	24:6	II (I, III)^*	0 (0, 1)^*	1190 ± 32
TLBD	78 (74, 85)	35:11	II (II, III)	1 (0, 1)^*	1200 ± 26

Demographic and pathologic features of PD with Lewy-related pathology; Alzheimer type pathology summary measures for NFT (Braak stage) and amyloid plaques (Thal phase);

Abbreviations: LBD = Lewy body disease; BLBD = brainstem predominant Lewy body disease; TLBD = transitional/limbic LBD; DLBD = diffuse/neocortical LBD; M =- male; F=female, NFT = neurofibrillary tangle. data is median (25^th percentile, 75^th percentile);

indicate p<0.05 compared to DLBD for Thal phase and Braak stage with ANOVA on Ranks.
