ImportanceAccurate diagnosis of neurodegenerative movement disorders is challenging because of a lack of in vivo biomarkers, overlapping clinical features, and a delay in the emergence of pathognomonic features.ObjectiveTo evaluate clinicopathological correlation, diagnostic accuracy, genetic association with pathology, and ancestry-related differences in a multiancestry brain bank cohort.Design, setting, and participantsThis was a multicenter, retrospective, autopsy-confirmed cross-sectional brain bank study on donors enrolled between 1985 and 2024. Included were donors from 11 academic brain banks in the UK, US, and Australia. Among brain donors with available genetic data from participating brain banks, included were individuals with clinical diagnoses of Parkinson disease, Parkinson disease dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal syndrome, multiple system atrophy, or neurologically normal controls.ExposuresGenetic variant carrier status and clinical diagnostic category.Main outcomes and measuresOutcomes included clinical diagnostic accuracy, Lewy body and Alzheimer disease pathology burden, survival, association with genetic variants, and genetically inferred ancestry.ResultsAmong 5648 brain donors with available genetic data, a total of 3353 eligible donors (mean [SD] age at death, 76.8 [10.6] years; 2072 male [61.8%]) were included. Misdiagnosis rates for movement disorders ranged approximately from 10% to 20%. Clinical diagnoses of dementia with parkinsonism (ie, Parkinson disease dementia and DLB) were more strongly associated with Lewy body pathology than Parkinson disease without dementia (odds ratio [OR], 1.96; 95% CI, 1.30-3.04; P = 7.2 × 10-4). Lewy pathology was identified in 33 of 745 of neurologically normal controls (4.4%). Alzheimer disease copathology was present in 426 of 1064 cases (40.0%) with Lewy body disease. Carriers of the GBA1 variant exhibited greater Lewy body burden compared with noncarriers (OR, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.24-3.03; P = .01) or carriers of the LRRK2 variant (OR, 7.44; 95% CI, 2.16-25.64; P = .01). Pathological diagnoses differed by ancestry, with South Asian donors more likely to have progressive supranuclear palsy pathology and Ashkenazi Jewish donors more likely to have Lewy body disease (χ22 = 35.5; P Conclusions and relevanceFindings of this cross-sectional brain bank study highlight the value of integrating genetic and pathological data to improve diagnostic accuracy. The high prevalence of Alzheimer disease copathology and ancestry-associated differences in pathology point to the need for biologically informed diagnostic tools. These results suggest supporting the integration of genetically and pathologically stratified approaches, correlating pathology with in vivo biomarkers, for future therapeutic trials.
