  1. 20 cases fall into three NFT groups: NFT stage I (4 females, 2 males, 50–79 years); NFT stage III (3 females, 4 males, 68–93 years); NFT stage V (3 females, 4 males, 58–84 years). Abbreviations: f, m—female, male; age—age in years; brain wt—fresh brain weight in grams; NFT—Alzheimer's disease-related neurofibrillary tangle stage using Gallyas silver-iodide staining; —amyloid-β deposition phase using 4G8 IHC; α-syn—Parkinson disease-related neuropathological stage using α-synuclein IHC; TDP-43—43-kDa TAR DNA-binding protein neuronal inclusions; APOEAPOE allele status; n/a -not available; AD—Alzheimer's disease; ILBD—incidental Lewy body disease; PCOM -posterior communicating artery; SAB—subarachnoid bleeding
