Sex Differences in the Severity and Progression of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms Across Different Dementia Types.

Background And Objectives: Dementia presents not only differing neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) across Alzheimer disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) but also subjective cognitive decline (SCD). This study examined sex-based variations in NPS severity and progression across these conditions.

Methods: We performed a longitudinal cohort study including 1,068 participants.
