A rare neurodegenerative disease with characteristics of progressive cognitive impairment, spastic tetraparesis and cerebellar ataxia resulting from amyloid deposits in the brain. Spasticity with increased deep tendon reflexes and tone are early symptoms, muscular rigidity evolves later. Progressive mental deterioration usually starts with apathy and impaired memory with progression to complete disorientation. Caused by heterozygous mutation in the ITM2B gene on chromosome 13q14.	Is a	False	Dementia	Inferred relationship	Some
A rare neurodegenerative disease characterized by extrapyramidal symptoms (rigidity, tremor, bradykinesia) and dementia, typically beginning in the fifth or sixth decade of life and progressing to a vegetative state with pelvicrural flexion contractures within few years. Oculomotor signs, olfactory dysfunction, and autonomic disturbances may also be observed. Neuropathological hallmarks are frontotemporally accentuated cerebral atrophy, as well as neurofibrillary tangles and neuronal loss in a characteristic distribution in cortical and subcortical regions. The disease is endemic to the Pacific Island of Guam.	Is a	True	Dementia	Inferred relationship	Some
Huntington's chorea	Is a	True	Dementia	Inferred relationship	Some
A rare genetic cerebral small vessel disease characterized by subcortical ischemic events associated with cognitive decline and gait disturbance with an age of onset typically in the sixth or seventh decade of life. Imaging reveals white matter hyperintensities, status cribrosum, lacunar infarcts, and sometimes microbleeds. Extra-neurological manifestations are absent.

A rare, neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive dementia and ataxia, widespread cerebral amyloid angiopathy and parenchymal amyloid deposition. Two subtypes have been identified, ABri amyloidosis and ADan amyloidosis.	Is a	True	Dementia	Inferred relationship	Some
