Healthy (n = 16), REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) (n = 14), dementia with Lewy bodies (n = 10), and Parkinson’s disease (PD) (n = 20) participants underwent 18F-AV133 vesicular monoamine transporter type-2 (VMAT2) PET to determine the integrity of the nigrostriatal pathway. This evidence concerns the gene SLC18A2 and dementia.
