Patient material overview. Controls without stroke were age-matched [mean age ± standard deviation (SD) HCHWA-D: 55.8 ± 7.1; NDC: 58.6 ± 8.4]; both gender were included in the two groups (%M, %F; HCHWA-D: 78, 22; NDC: 56, 44); and post-mortem delays (PMDs; in hours) were not significantly different (HCHWA-D: 7.1 ± 5.2; NDC: 7.2 ± 2.2). Frontal and occipital human post-mortem brain tissue was obtained from the Netherlands Brain Bank (NBB) and from our hospital (LUMC).
