   Proposal Description:
   The aim of this project is to explore the possible correlation between height and diagnosis of DLB in both men and women. Although previous research suggest DLB affects more men than women, gender will also be examined to explore how DLB may affect height in men and women. The present project can help shed light on an unknown physical characteristic of DLB. I am interested in those with Dementia and MCI with DLB etiology and the only variables I need for this exploratory analysis are DLB diagnosis, height, sex, and race.
