METHODS: \nForty-one DLB patients and 98 AD patients were assessed for BPSD using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI). Each patient's midlife personality traits were rated by a family member using the NEO Five-Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) questionnaire. RESULTS: \nIn multiple regression analyses for DLB patients, NPI total score and anxiety were significantly associated with premorbid openness, delusion with premorbid agreeableness, and agitation with premorbid conscientiousness. In AD patients, depression was significantly associated with premorbid neuroticism, and agitation, apathy, and irritability with premorbid agreeableness. CONCLUSION: \nPremorbid personalities affected BPSD differently in DLB and AD. Given the differences in the effects of premorbid personalities on BPSD, additional studies are needed to develop interventions to reduce these symptoms., application/pdf, application/pdf}, school = {旭川医科大学}, title = {Association of premorbid personality with behavioral and psychological symptoms in dementia with Lewy bodies: comparison with Alzheimer's disease patients}, year = {2017}, yomi = {タバタ, カズキ} }
