Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a common neurological change that frequently coexists with other pathologies like Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body dementia, which led a team of researchers to investigate the risk factors and prevalence of CAA. The study found that not only is age a risk factor for CAA, but CAA is also seen in patients with Lewy body pathology alone and in patients with both Alzheimer's disease and Lewy body pathology. Dive further into the findings with Dr. Charles Turck and Dr. Jagan Pillai, a behavioral neurologist at Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health.
