limbic and neocortical aSyn pathology had the strongest association with dementia.
- between a 5fold and a third of all PD cases in the largest studies had comorbid AD

However: DLB pathology is heterogeneous, including neuronal loss, cholinergic degeneration, AD and vascular pathology in addition to LB pathology
(Olivera, 2021) In DLB it is difficult to determine the pattern of spreading as Lewy pathologies occur from the outset in many brain regions, suggesting a more rapid process of spreading potentially due to coexisting AD deposition. Many DLB patients have coexisting AD pathologies, while in DLB patients the pattern of spread of αSyn pathologies is from the periphery into the limbic system and then beyond.
α-syn-only inclusions of αSyn are an important features in PD and DLB but observed less frequently in [Sometano, 2019 #1138]
fast pathology was moderate or severe in around a third, and Aβ pathology was moderate or severe in over half. Aβ was associated with a more rapid cognitive decline and earlier mortality, and in the striatum, distinguished PDD from DLB.
Aβ load(Hepp, 2018 #850 ICN-mediam) AB was more prevalent in DLB than in PDD, and tau tangles appeared to have a synergistic relationship with αSyn, leading to worse prognosis (Hepp, 2018 #1132) (a-4)

MSA-P with predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P) | EPS predominate (striatonigral degeneration: parkinsonian variant)
MSA-C with cerebellar features (MSA-C) | cerebellar ataxia predominates ('sporadic olivopontocerebellar atrophy')

The association of GBA mutations with multiple system atrophy (MSA) is not clear, as some studies showed no association between GBA mutations and MSA, while the largest study so far demonstrated a strong association, albeit weaker than the association with PD or DLB.
