Hallucinations and Delusions in Dementia With Lewy Bodies (Behavioural Neurology)
Summary Hallucinations and delusions are common in Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). A study shows that DLB patients who experience delusional symptoms tend to have poorer cognitive function and more severe BPSD. Oddly, DLB patients with diabetes appear to be less … Continue reading →
