Comparison of significant comorbidities of vascular dementia (VaD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. All VaD comorbidities are indicated with a green line and all AD comorbidities in orange. The color on the y‐axis indicates which International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10th Revision (ICD‐10) chapter the significant comorbidity belongs to. A green line in the purple area indicates a VaD comorbidity for chapter IX “Diseases of the circulatory system.” When both a green and an orange line are present, the comorbidity is significant in both AD and VaD patients. The x‐axis shows the relative risk (RR) for each comorbidity. For specification of all significant comorbidities and RRs, see Table S1. For the color scheme of ICD‐10 chapters see Figure 2
