Outcomes of Patients With Mild Cognitive Impairment With Lewy Bodies or Alzheimer Disease at 3 and 5 Years After Diagnosis

Retrospective studies indicate that dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) may be preceded by a mild cognitive impairment (MCI) prodrome. Research criteria for the prospective identification of MCI with Lewy bodies (MCI-LB) have been developed. We aimed to assess the prognosis of a prospectively identified MCI-LB cohort at 2 key milestones, 3- and 5 years after diagnosis, to examine classification stability over time and rates of adverse outcomes (dementia or death).
