Samples from DLB text edit

These samples are typical of every instance of duplicated text that was copied without attribution and with scant changes – showing the time that went in to building the text, reading all sources, and adding content source-by-source.

Sample 1 edit

From Wikipedia article April 2018:

Short-term memory impairment is seen early in AD and is a prominent feature, while fluctuating attention is uncommon; impairment in DLB is more often seen first as fluctuating cognition. While 74% of people with autopsy-confirmed DLB had deficits in planning and organization, they show up in only 45% of people with AD. In AD, it is unclear if executive function is impacted early. Visuospatial processing deficits are present in most individuals with DLB, and they show up earlier and are more pronounced than in AD. Hallucinations typically occur early in the course of DLB, are less common in early AD, but usually occur later in AD. AD pathology frequently co-occurs in DLB, so the cerebrospinal fluid testing for Aβ and tau protein that is often used to detect AD is not useful in differentiating AD and DLB.

Short-term memory impairment is seen early in AD. It is a prominent feature, while fluctuating attention is uncommon. On the other hand, impairment in DLB is more often seen first as fluctuating cognition. While 74% of people with autopsy-confirmed DLB had deficits in planning and organization, they show up in only 45% of people with AD. Further, in AD, it is unclear if executive function is impacted early. Visuospatial processing deficits are present in most individuals with DLB, where they show up earlier and are more pronounced than in AD. Hallucinations typically occur early in the course of DLB, are less common in early AD, but usually occur later in AD. AD pathology frequently co-occurs in DLB, so the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) testing for amyloid-beta and tau protein that is often used to detect AD is not useful in differentiating AD and DLB.

Sample 2 edit

From Wikipedia article April 2018:

Because of the neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with DLB, the demands placed on caregivers are higher than in AD, but education for caregivers has not been studied as thoroughly as in AD. Contributing factors to the caregiver burden in DLB are psychosis, aggression, agitation, and night-time behaviors such as parasomnias, that lead to a loss of independence earlier than in AD. Caregivers may experience depression, exhaustion, and be in need of support. Other family members who are not present in the daily caregiving may not observe the fluctuating behaviors or recognize the stress on the caregiver, and conflict can result when family members are not supportive. Caregiver education reduces not only distress for the caregiver, but symptoms for the individual with dementia. Visual hallucinations associated with DLB create a particular burden on caregivers; caregivers should be educated on how to distract or change the subject when confronted with hallucinations rather than arguing over the reality of the hallucination, according to the Lewy Body Dementia Association. Coping strategies may help and are worth trying, even though there is no evidence for their efficacy. These strategies include having the person with DLB look away or look at something else, focus on or try to touch the hallucination, wait for it to go away on its own, and speak with others about the visualization. Delusions and hallucinations may be reduced by increasing lighting in the evening, and making sure there is no light at night when the individual with DLB is sleeping.

Because of the neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with DLB, the demands placed on caregivers are higher than in AD, but education for caregivers has not been studied as thoroughly as in AD.
